Answer 1

One possible solution is to define your translations as a global variable on the window outside your script

<script>
var translations = {
   notification: '@localizer["NotificationManage"]'
}
</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="pathtoscript.js"></script>

then inside your script you go

alert(window.translations.notification);

If any better solution is given here I'm happy to hear, because we use it this way in production

since this is getting more upvotes then I could ever imagine I would strongly suggest you check out the blog post of the other answer, although my answer here is working it requires some coding, if you implement the blog post, resources will become automatically available to your js which is more desirable in some cases – Airport

Answer 2

Another approach we could consider is to create a custom tag helper to convert the resource file contents to a global javascript object and then this variable object can be directly accessed in the external js files

It is mentioned in detail in this blog javascript localization worth a read.
