[FEATURE REQUEST]: Additional language translations

[smk762]

There has been some discussion in Discord regarding additional translations - currently we have support for 4 languages, with plans to expand this. The infographic below shows the distribution of languages spoken globally.

And here we have a list of countries with highest crypto adoption

Based on this I believe we should prioritise adding the following languages to AtomicDEX:

• Spanish
• Portugese
• Mandarin
• Hindi
• Arabic
• German
• Japanese
• Korean
• Hungarian
• Indonesian

With initial focus given to languages which we have native speakers within the team or trusted community contributors to assist / review. Where native speakers are unable to provide PRs directly, we can initiate the process via tools like google translate and then supply a build to native speakers for verification.

I encourage anyone willing to assist with this effort to leave a comment in this thread indicating the language(s) they are willing and able to assist with adding.

Example translation files are available at https://github.com/KomodoPlatform/atomicDEX-Desktop/issues/1534 Those interested can make a copy and rename to indicate the language, then edit the words between the tags.

For those experienced with Qt, you can also use https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/linguist-translators.html
