Introduction

The AI Translator project is designed to facilitate language translation through an intuitive web interface. It uses Next.js, a React framework, for the front-end to create a user-friendly experience, and Python for the back-end to handle translation requests using AI models, and output it in JSON format.

The project uses Hugging Face's Helsinki Opus pre-trained models to translate text between various languages, providing an efficient and easy-to-use solution for language barriers. When loading a model for the first time, it can take a while for the installation.

This project currently offers translation between the languages Arabic, English, French, German, and Spanish.
