Load mobile app localization resources dynamically from cloud cms

Question

I have react-native cross platform mobile app. I want to move its localization resources to some online service, so I can update texts with out updating the whole app.

There is a lot of different cloud based cms systems available, but what would be best fit for managing app localizations?

So far I have tried to evaluate Contentful cms, they have javascritp lib etc. But I do not think their systems, model structures, suits very well for mobile app licalization resource storage?

Contentful is a great way to accomplish what you are trying to do. Check out this Dynamic Microcopy article. Essentially you create 2 content types: a Resource content type with a Key field and a Value field (both short text) and a Resource Set content type with a Name short text field and a Resources multi-reference field with a validation to accept only Resource entries
