There's already ways to do translation locally in javascript with neural-nets running in WASM, this is just more convenient.

I tried to use this model in my package with translators kit https://github.com/translate-tools/core/pull/112

It runs very slow. Test case that run translation for text in 3k chars multiple times, takes about 30 seconds for google translator, but more than 10 minutes for `nllb-200-distilled-600M`.

My tests runs on nodejs, it looks in browser it have no chance for real world use
