{% endcontent-ref %}

## Step 2) Decide for a i18n instrumentation

Next you will need to instrument your code to enable the internationalization of your website. For more details on that read the [instrument your code section](/integration/instrumenting-your-code.md).

## Step 3) Add new / existing segments

You can add new segments or complete files using the web interface or the [command line tool](https://github.com/locize/locize-cli).

Using locizify or i18next you can enable the `saveMissing` option - doing so new segments will automatically added to your project.
