Describe your suggestion

Translation and Localization is crucial for making The Odin Project's curriculum accessible to a wider audience. Currently, the curriculum is primarily in English, which can exclude non-English speakers. Contributions can involve translating existing content into other languages, adapting examples to fit cultural contexts, and ensuring accuracy and quality through proofreading and testing. This process requires not only translating text but also updating documentation and integrating translations into the curriculum on GitHub. By engaging with the community and following contribution guidelines, translators help broaden the reach of the project, making it more inclusive and valuable for learners worldwide.

Could you clarify whether we need to translate just the website's interface or also the course content within it? Additionally, it would be helpful if you could specify which languages the translations are required for to ensure we provide comprehensive language support.

English is already a global language. Most programming languages use English keywords. Most docs in several tools are in English. I think it makes sense to learn English if you are getting in programming/web dev. Besides what you are asking is too much overload for the maintainers if u don't know these guys are volunteers they dont get paid or anything yes u read it right they are volunteers

I will close this issue as official curriculum translations are not a thing we plan to endorse, as there are many difficulties involving creating and maintaining curriculum translations.

People are welcome to do their own things within the permissions of our license, but there's more involved in making and maintaining translations than may have been considered here.
