German translation

[lkreimann]

I'd like to translate this book to german. It might take a while when I'm going to work alone on this, but maybe there's somebody (or multiple people) who would like to work on this together with me.

I haven't found another german translation yet (or a WIP for that matter). If someone knows anything, please point me to the repo. Hints are very much appreciated!

Wonderful. I haven't heard from anyone working on a German translation of the 3rd edition, so I guess you can start from a fresh fork (do link to it here).

Alright, I'm gonna work on it here: https://github.com/lkreimann/Eloquent-JavaScript

I'm thankful for all the help I can get!

Hey @lkreimann, I'd be willing to help out, I don't see much progress on your fork. Is it offline somewhere, is there anywhere in particular you'd like me to start?

[lkreimann]

Hi @mrunkel, my progress here equals zero on my fork :( feel free to make a new fork and I'd be happy to help out on it! I don't have much time right know (or sitting in front of an IDE isn't that much of a priority in my life right now), so I'm not sure if I'm the best to shoulder such a big project :D Would love to help though

Hello you two, did you already start / did some progress? I'd love to help out as well. 🙂 How can I do that best?

[mrunkel]

Hi @leichteckig . I haven't started. But your comment has spurred me to action. :)

I've now forked the repo here and invited you as a collaborator. You can check it out and make changes and then just push them back. I'll go ahead and make issues for each chapter, then when you want to work on a chapter, just assign the issue to yourself.

Thank you, that sounds perfect! ❤️ I'll start right away, looking forward to being helpful. 🙂
