[Feature Request] Actual Localization Support

[Kvasenok]

Can we hope for the actual localization of the app and not just Readme? Maybe creating a project on crowdin could work? It just seems based on the localized Readme's the community is willing to help.

I have never made a localised app but I'm interested to try it on Protecc. I think I will have to push this for after v2 however

Actually, I've been working on it for a few weeks. I implemented most of the i18n function but, there are a number of something to handle such as RTL support or the element's size adjustment due to the long strings.

And below is the Crowdin-GitHub integration setting. You can designate files that you want to translate as Resources.resw and README.md. If you want to add support language, add language at Crowdin and let it make translated files then that language will be added automatically in the selection combobox.

This is actually amazing

It's more than amazing, it's progress 😃

I've resolved the long-string issue, but RTL will take a long time. I included the crowdin.yml file, so when you are ready to integrate with Crowdin, you can use it.

When you set up the Crowdin project, they will make a new branch. And when the project has been updated, they create PR for the original branch.

If you add a new string, you have to give a x:Uid to the element and then add that into resources.resw.

To add new support language, include a folder that contains resources.resw into the project.

About Localize strings

I recommend testing at another branch yourself. If you want to do, make a branch then I'll create a PR for that :)

I set this branch while assuming as before the Crowdin integration so if you want to set Crowdin from begin you can use this.
