 at rendering and can be used to declare translatable properties in class methods
 of global variables.
 
+.. note::

+    Translations of a module are **not** exposed to the front end by default and
+    thus are not accessible from JavaScript. In order to achieve that, the
+    module name has to be either prefixed with `website` (just like
+    `website_sale`, `website_event` etc.) or explicitly register by implementing
+    :func:`_get_translation_frontend_modules_name` for the `ir.http` model.
+
+    This could look like the following::
+
+        from odoo import models
+
+        class IrHttp(models.AbstractModel):
+            _inherit = 'ir.http'
+

+                return modules + ['your_module']
