@GoozeyX yes there is workaround for that .. you can download the en.json file from https://github.com/mattermost/platform/blob/master/i18n/en.json and run the platform command again.
The platform command for whatever reason searches for the en.json file in the current directory.
@it33 Probably it is a good idea to put the i18n search path information in the config and then initializing the locales after the configuration was loaded.
