TODO
- Windows OS support
- Add the option not to translate certain words/phrases
- Recursive multi level JSON objects and arrays. (At the moment only strings, 1st level arrays and 1st level objects)
- Instead of overwriting whole files, ability to add new keys only to existing translations
- Make sure attributes of html elements are not translated in all languages
