'Firefox Translations' is a Firefox extension that translates web content directly within your Firefox browser, ensuring user privacy by keeping all translations local and not using the cloud. Initially standalone, this feature has now been integrated into Firefox. This translation tool supports numerous languages, with aid from The Bergamot Project Consortium, and funding from the European Union's Horizon 2020 programme.
