Internationalization / translations

Open The-Compiler opened this issue 11 years ago • 9 comments

If there are people willing to translate, maybe support for i18n should be added.

Hi! I might help you with translation into German and Russian if you tell me what exactly has to be "internationalized" =) It could take a while though...

Cool! I could do German myself :). But in general, this was just an idea, and I wonder if it's really worth the effort, given that people using such a browser are probably quite okay with English...

Stimmt! Mir ist eben aufgefallen, dass Du aus der Schweiz kommst =D

But perhaps you are right. People that came up with the idea to use your browser or any similar browsers (dwb, luakit, etc.) must have learnt English anyway =)

I've been using your browser for a couple of days and must say it's the most stable lightweight vim-like browser I have ever used. My previous default browser was luakit, and I really had troubles with it. Besides constantly crashing, it seemed to not release RAM after closing pages. So the RAM used by luakit just accumulated over time. Also, it had problems with saving sessions upon closing so that I had to manually correct the code for my local copy. (Sorry for off-topic writing)

I would be glad to contribute to your browser anyway, even if I am not a born programmer =)

I'm closing this - probably not worth the effort looking at the small and technical userbase.

Given that our userbase is a lot bigger and more international than it was five years ago, I think it's time to reconsider this. No immediate plans to add translation infrastructure (and I'm not even sure how well it'd work given that e.g. qutebrowser gets command descriptions from docstrings), but it certainly warrants a closer look.

Hi. I am Japanese and I love your browser very much. But I only regret that there are no other languages in this browser. I'm not good at English and I'm a beginner in programming. but I may be able to contribute in some way.

Yeah! I can translate to Polish, Czech and Esperanto.
