Integrated system for localization of resources tailored for translations by setting a flag

A method for localizing a software resource in a second language is disclosed. The method may include receiving a software resource in a first language, receiving data relating to a state of translations performed for the software application by a localization service, determining based on the software resource in the first language and the data whether an up-to-date software resource in a second language exists in a data store where the software resource in the second language corresponds to the software resource in the first language. Upon determining that the up-to-date software resource in the second language exists, utilizing the up-to-date software resource in the build process, and upon determining that the up-to-date software resource does not exist in the data store, sending a request to the localization service to create the up-to-date software resource in the second language, and upon creation of the up-to-date software resource receiving a link to a location of the software resource in the data store.
