French translation and other languages

[smellems]

Is there interest in adding French translations to Devex?

I started, using the angular-translate library that was used to enable translation on the original Government of Canada (GC) devex.

There was a GCdevex online about 1-2 years ago. The code is based on an older version of the Devex platform. I'm looking at reapplying changes to the latest version of Devex.

I would like some advice on how best to implement this, especially if there is interest in merging this feature once its implemented.

Here is some initial work to show what it could look like https://github.com/BCDevExchange/devex/compare/develop...canada-ca:translate

Some things still to look into

• Duplicate routes to add a language - more complex to add other languages
• Root of the site '/' - default language or splash
• Links - real hrefs are nice

Thanks for your help and consideration!
