Multiple Language Support

[SachaG]

This is more of a long-term project since the UI is not currently internationalized, but assuming we had translators on board it could be a good idea to translate the results site.

This could be especially effective in letting us reach new audiences for next year's survey. If you'd like to help us with this, please leave a comment here mentioning the language(s) you'd like to help translate to.

(cc @SachaG) Just to let anyone know: I'm current working on the internationalization of the platform on my fork. Currently I've only worked on home, in the next 2/3 days I think I'll finish the surveys. If anyone is interested in helping I'll be very glad.

[awalin]

I can help with Bengali. To be fair, coding itself is in English, so more than language, the important factor is understanding the local factors, like salary in USD does not make sense when we compare across countries, ay idea how we can show the salary data properly? Can we normalize it somehow?

[giuseongit]

I just read some code, the surveys are basically a bunch of md files and some english words scattered all over the codebase. While in home I set up a basic i18n support #143 , I noticed that also the surveys have a basic support for languages. I need someone to help me write a more robust structure for handling different languages. Is there a more technical/detailed issue for this?

Also, some ui/ux help would be great, as I simply don't know where to put the language switch.

Just to give everybody a quick update: first of all, we're blown away by all the offers to help! It's the first time I'm this happy to see 99 comments on a GitHub issue ;)

So now we just need to figure out how this will work. We didn't really set up the site with i18n in mind so there's lots of things to adapt and @plouc is currently working on that. Once we have this working we'll also come up with some guidelines & workflow to let you know the best way to help us.

Stay tuned!
