Valhalla comes with many languages installed, let's make use of them.

Can i work on this issue if its open?

Jep sure, thanks. To avoid confusion, I raise awareness for our guide on all issues: https://github.com/gis-ops/valhalla-app/wiki/GSoC-2023.

Hey @nilsnolde , thankyou for assigning the issue, i went through our code base and also made some searches on how to implement multi language model in our application...I came across "i18next" which helps us to implement different language with a dropdown select button...It an external package which isn't in our dependencies earlier...So should i go ahead with it and implement i18next?

Hm, sorry, slight misunderstanding. This issue is about translating Valhalla's maneuvers only. IMO it's fairly much out-of-scope for a full translation unit, i.e. the translating the full UI (though it's good to have in mind for the actual GSoC project).

See here the docs: https://valhalla.github.io/valhalla/api/turn-by-turn/api-reference/#supported-language-tags

If you think it's worth it at this point to include that package, you can. Might be, for language selection UI or so. And it's definitely helpful for translating the app's UI at a later point.

Hi there,

I noticed this issue was opened a while ago. Is it still open and being actively worked on? If so, I'd be interested in contributing to help resolve it. Could you please provide some guidance on how to get started?

Looking forward to contributing! Thanks.
