Is there any way to make an extension “language independent”, i.e. can I somehow check the language of the scratch such that I can set block titles depending on the currently used language?

As far as I know, this is not an available feature. It would be nice if a resource file mechanism could be put in place to support multiple languages (ScratchX team - hint, hint )

Would love to see this ability in both Scratch X and HTTP extensions for Scratch offline. Official extensions like the Lego WeDo do have blocks that translate.

This is not currently possible, but it has been brought up before. You should file this as an issue (feature request) on the Github repo for ScratchX.

For the Arduino extension, we're using a query string (lang) to specify the language.

All of the block translations are defined in the arduino_extension.js file.

It's not ideal, but it works.
