Open ladonnaq opened 1 year ago

ladonnaq commented 1 year ago

We should look at enabling localization for our Power Apps. We have quite a few service partners who their 2nd language is English.

This is blocked until the UI for the scheduler tool is stable. We need to see a way to test the translations make sense in a specific language

Had a brief look at Microsoft Translator, basically we need to call it to translate a specific text into another language.

MicrosoftTranslator.Translate(Source.Text, locale)

There is no global setting to translate the entire App into another language. So, it takes more effort than expected. Synced with @ladonnaq, it's nice to have this feature but has lower priority, put it back to backlog.

As part of this, we should keep in mind that dates will be translated into the user's browser language. If we want to keep consistency between languages, a language must be specified when casting a date into a text.
