Localisation #76

Open michaelvogt opened 10 years ago

michaelvogt commented 10 years ago

Localisation of the coder interface and the projects to other languages would be good. Children I would need to teach, don't speak English, yet.

I'd be happy to help with German and Japanese. Is there interest in doing so, and how to set it up?

Started to implement localisation using John Resigs strategy: http://ejohn.org/blog/a-strategy-for-i18n-and-node/

:+1: Once you have it implemented, I'd be willing to help with the french translation.

@michaelvogt have you seen @airbnb's i18n helper library, Polyglot? http://airbnb.github.io/polyglot.js/ might be useful to you...

@ascott thanks for the link. I didn't know it. Will have a look.

How is the localization going? I would like to help with spanish

michaelvogt commented 9 years ago

As things didn't progress as planed, I wasn't able to use Coder in a project. Because of this priorities changed. I just had time to understand how to do it (thanks @ascott), but work hasn't really started. As it looks right now, I might have time again late January. so when somebody else has time to start, feel free to do so. Will look at it again otherwise.

Just catching up on this. There's been a lot of interest in this, and we've even done some work with a trial translation to Portuguese. I'd like to find a way to have these variations slipped into the source at install time so that there aren't a ton of language substitutions peppered throughout all the example code. Let me know if you have any proposals for doing this well.

I haven't forgotten this task, just didn't come up with the time for it. Will be busy until end of April.
