OpenWaves.EPiServer.Localization: Strongly typed access to EPiServer language files

Recently Making Waves released OpenWaves.EPiServer.Localization NuGet package. It provides strongly typed access to EPiServer lang. Now you can use:

string text = TranslationKeys.MyPage.MyCategory.Intro.GetString();

// instead of
// string text = LocalizationService.Current.GetString("/myPage/myCategory/intro");

UPDATE: EPiServer 6 & 7 supported

Localization package support both EPiServer 6 & 7. To change version change Resources\TranslationKeys.tt

...
<#@ import namespace="OpenWaves.EPiServer.Localization.Transformations" #>

<# 
    var epiServerVersion = 7;
    // for EPiServer 6.x version    
    // var epiServerVersion = 6;
...
