Following up on [last month’s release about source string creation and deletion](https://community.transifex.com/t/now-live-create-and-delete-source-strings-in-the-editor/5216) we’re excited to announce two new features now available in Transifex: **Create Resources from Scratch** You can now create resources directly within the platform without needing to upload a file first. This makes it easier to start localizing content from the ground up, right inside the editor. **PO File Format Support in the Editor** The editor now supports PO (Gettext) files as an additional format for creating and managing strings. These updates are part of our ongoing work to make resource and string management more flexible and accessible directly within Transifex. You can read more details about both features in the articles below: - [Creating Source Strings in the Editor](https://help.transifex.com/en/articles/13436452-creating-source-strings-in-the-editor) - [Adding Content for Translation](https://help.transifex.com/en/articles/6236812-adding-content-for-translation) Have questions or feedback? Drop them in the comments below! We’d love to hear how you’re using these new features.
