strings referencing other strings

[endquote]

I'm exploring a migration from an existing tool to Weblate.

In the existing tool, a string can reference another like this:

string key appname = "My Great App"
string key gotoapp = "Go to [$$appname$$]"

Then if I go look at gotoapp it reads as "Go to My Great App".

Does this concept exist in Weblate? Apologies if I'm just missing it in the documentation.

Such variables are typically expanded when rendering the translations, not when doing them. Weblate has support of checking many format strings, see https://docs.weblate.org/en/latest/user/checks.html#formatted-strings
