Significance of sentence-collector.json?

If the fork of CV wishes to add sentences manually in /server/data/language-code/ and not via sentence collector app the json will not be generated.
In that case, will fork-CV runs fine or /server/data/language-code/sentence-collector.json file is required during the operation?

Also we wish to remove some of EN sentence which seems foreign to our user. If removing it from /server/data/en/ do we also need to edit .json file present in the directory? (again a manual process) But I need to understand will it break anything or it’s just for source ref.?

Thanks regards.

The json is only there for archiving and auditing purposes. Nothing from that file will be imported and you can safely ignore or delete it. This is only also for the Sentence Collector export, the other .txt files are not even in there. You can modify all .txt files to your liking without changing the json file.
