After that, we can start to pull in more languages. And this also opens the doors to user-submitted translations.

This is an XML file, but and I find it annoying to directly modify it. So I recommend using an XLIFF tool to edit the file. There are many free apps available. I like the "Loca Studio" app (free download from Mac App Store).

You can Build-and-Run from Xcode to inspect your work.
