Use translation service/tool

Open fluks opened this issue 8 years ago • 1 comments

Now that the addon is localized, how about using a translation service? Github has three such integrations. I haven't used any of those, only Weblate which is used by Osmand - the Android map app - developers.

Pros:

  • Non-technical people can easily provide translations.

Cons:

  • Possibly lots of work for little benefit. There is not so much to translate in this project and the vocabulary is easy, so maybe programmers care to translate.

I volunteer to research about the possibilities and also to integrate the service. Mostly out of curiosity.

I agree that it’s possibly a lot of work for little benefit, but it doesn’t hurt at all, so if you are interested, go for it! 👍
