Localization - internationalization (l10n/i18n)

Don't duplicate work!

Check existing translation pull-requests to see if someone else is already working on it.

How to add a new language

First pull-request

  1. In config\_default\, copy config\_default\languages.en.toml into config\_default\languages.XX.toml (where XX is your language code) and update it following indications given in comments (lines starting with #)
  2. In config\_default\, copy config\_default\menu.en.toml into config\_default\menu.XX.toml (where XX is your language code), translate name = and prefix urls with /XX/.
  3. In i18n\ copy en.toml into XX.toml (where XX is your language code) and translate the strings.
  4. Add your language in netlify.toml and layouts\_partial\langs.html.
  5. Copy content\base-l10n\ into content\XX\ (where XX is your language code)

After the first pull-request

You can start translating the files that are inside content\XX\:

  • Copy the English version of the file you wish to translate into content\XX\
  • Do not change date or lastmod : they must correspond to the the English version (and not when the translation occured: it's used to detect when a translation is out-of-sync)
  • If your translation takes time, please open early a draft pull-request so others know you are working on it
