Improve discoverability of mobile locale switcher

Open hslee2008 opened this issue 2 years ago • 7 comments

There are no methods of swithcing language.

Please make one.

Maybe like an option selecting languages and moving to that language docs.

Here, language as in ko, en, fr.

@HyunseungLee-Travis, on all pages, there is this language switcher:

Are you perhaps referring to something else?

Maybe in mobile, too?

We can switch language on mobile, see:

Huh. Did not know that. Maybe people who are first visiting mdn docs might have some problem finding the language switch feature.

There might very well be an opportunity to improve this from a UX perspective. Calling to the attention of Elios.

Maybe we could add a locale switcher to the footer, like on Mozilla.org:
