Is there a specific reason your translations are in json files, and not using a system such as gettext? IMO those .po files are much easier to translate for non-tech people, especially with many third party apps available for editing them. There are libraries available for many languages, so you don't have to do anything manually in most cases.
No real reason for using json files, other than it's a web app build in JavaScript, so json was kinda the default for it. Definitely open to changing to whatever makes it more convenient to manage.
