Support for translations

Open handrus opened this issue 9 years ago • 6 comments

Hi, as soon as I saw the app I thought about translating it to other languages. I believe we have some ways to do it. Maybe using a template engine or simply by generating other files like index-ptbr.html, index-de.html etc. Would you be interested in receive translations?

If you're asking “Am I interested in translating this for other languages” then yes, yes I would be.

That's a great idea, although we do translations with the Accessibility Project using Google Translate which you can see in the footer of the site http://a11yproject.com.

I am offering myself to translate it, at least to portuguese and spanish. Just need some guidance as how would you prefer it ti happen. Maybe something like https://github.com/zaach/jsxgettext or http://lostechies.com/gabrielschenker/2014/02/11/angularjspart-12-multi-language-support/ could make it incredibly easy for anyone to translate it to other languages. since google is improving but is far from being acceptable (IMHO).

I'm not partial so whatever you think is best and can work within the flow here then whatever you decide on is fine by me :)

I would make yourself a sep. branch called…wait for it…“translations.”

Thanks for donating your time to this feature. It's gonna rock!

Or you guys can do what mdo/code-guide does. Translators can fork the repo, translate it, and open a PR to add the link to the translated fork on the readme.

I might jump into the fray as well.

@diagramatics I personally don't care to maintain multiple languages so anything that's easy for me to maintain will be my choice, otherwise I'd rather see other forks to translate as needed.

Is this issue really needed anymore? I'd like to close it as it seems not really interesting to anyone to finish let alone begin working on.
