Choose crates

Most applications need the es-fluent facade, one runtime manager, and the CLI during development.

Need	Crate or command
Typed messages, labels, variants, and choices	`es-fluent`
General Rust, CLI, TUI, or desktop runtime	`es-fluent-manager-embedded`
Dioxus client or SSR runtime	`es-fluent-manager-dioxus`
Bevy ECS and UI runtime	`es-fluent-manager-bevy`
Typed locale enum and language labels	`es-fluent-lang`
Generate, check, sync, format, and inspect FTL	`cargo es-fluent` from `es-fluent-cli`
Track locale assets and compile-check fallback messages	`es-fluent-build` under `[build-dependencies]`

A general Rust application can start with:

[dependencies]
es-fluent = "0.18"
es-fluent-manager-embedded = "0.18"
unic-langid = "0.9"

[build-dependencies]
es-fluent-build = "0.18"

Install the CLI separately:

cargo install es-fluent-cli --locked

Compatible release lines

The framework-specific managers follow their framework version:

Surface	Release line	Runtime compatibility
`es-fluent`, CLI, embedded manager, and language enum	`0.18.x`	General Rust
`es-fluent-manager-dioxus`	`0.7.x`	Dioxus `0.7.x`
`es-fluent-manager-bevy`	`0.19.x`	Bevy `0.19.x`

Application code normally uses the facade and a concrete manager. The following crates are intended for narrower integration work:

es-fluent-derive and es-fluent-lang-macro implement macros re-exported by the public facades.
es-fluent-manager-core exposes shared runtime contracts for custom manager integrations.
es-fluent-manager-macros exposes the manager module and Bevy text macros re-exported by concrete managers.
