How to implement fetching localizable strings from the backend?
Since NSLocalizedString reads from bundle and can't be changed at runtime, I am trying to come up with a solution to implement my own localizable strings fetched from the server at runtime so that it can be used in the app.
I went through this solution: https://stackoverflow.com/a/52332644 . This solution reads from a json file which means everytime the app launches this json file needs to be in memory which can be very large too. How should I implement the same so that it doesn't add much overhead?
