Translate website to english

[marcelaquint]

translate site to english and then integrate it

i'll finish the translation this friday and add a .md here i will think how the user will switch between languages as well

Kids! The translation is almost finished! I create a branch [ https://github.com/Aerochimps/aerochimps-dot-com/tree/internacionalization ] to work on it. All the infra structure is ready and the English translation is there and need a revision to make sure we have everything Ok!

By default the main URL redirect to /lang/pt-br. When it comes alive, I think the main URL should point to /lang/eng but we need to discuss it.

I still need to implement the switcher, so to access the English version, you need to add a /lang in the end of URL and choose the folder ;)

Important points to check. @mpontas I make a free translation of regular and facebook metatags. You should take a look and make sure if the texts are ok.

@gumaestri I work to separate content and scripts witch need localization. Since you integrate the contact form, I don't touch on it. Can you please take a look in the feedback messages and make sure the form is working in both languages? Thanks :grimacing:

@gumaestri Would be possible to get the user's ip and set the default language to pt-br if he is in brazil or to eng if he is abroad?

:D

I've designed 5 different options to our language switch.

I liked the last 2 the best. But for this options to be really cool, the content must slide down when the language switch is open. Just like the "more" item on https://www.goclio.com/ does.

What do you think?

option 2. https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/1020108/2759055/37b0632a-c99a-11e3-950c-3b263f841b04.png

Eu prefiro a opção 3, para a barra de menu não dançar quando abrir/fechar o menu

Houston ( @mpontas @gumaestri ) we have a V1 of our language switcher. The merge of "internalization" branch to "master" Don't forgot to run compass compile or compass watch in the project folder before test it in your local server.

@idmarjr

It's perfectly working for me. Very smooth!

I would suggest 3 adjustments:

1. The words "Deutsch", "English" and "Português do Brasil" must always be written like this. It helps the user to revert the changes to his original language if he doesn't understand the language he chose. It's a good accessibility practice.

1. The switch is too large. It's been designed to every item be almost the same size of the header.

1. Should be a white background in every item, even if they are not active or on hover. It's a rgba(255,255,255,0.25).

I guess that's it. :) Nice work!

@mpontas fix, fix fix. Last review in the content? Or can I deploy it right now? :sunglasses:

[marcelaquint]

All good! :D Go for it.
