Closed henrylin03 closed 2 months ago

henrylin03 commented 2 months ago

checklist

[x] enable entire landing page to be translated into simplified chinese
[x] enable both policies to be translated into simplified chinese
[x] update title of html if chinese, for all pages
[x] update footer if chinese, for all pages
[x] add language picker to header
[ ] add language picker to footer (see below) [won't do]

footer no longer required for the time being - header only, starting with landing page
decided to use a button group to toggle between english and simplified chinese (no requirements for other languages at the moment)
moving to waiting status for: (1) review of copy by jy, and (2) colour and other styling requirements on button group by nf

once styling requirements provided, will build for responsiveness (likely with media queries)

henrylin03 commented 2 months ago

button group styled with rounded corners to look more friendly and less jarring. colours retained based on ux/ui designer direction.

moving to waiting to decide on next steps regarding copy in chinese from jy - jy advised happy to push it prod

henrylin03 commented 2 months ago

reopening - the title and footer content should also be translated

henrylin03 commented 2 months ago

challenge with updating the title of the html, is that we would need the javascript to update the document like:

document.title = "..."

however, because we're sharing the script.js file across all the pages, this would require many conditional statements, if that's even possible for us to confirm what page it is being applied to. this feels unsustainable - we may need to implement webpack bundler, which would likely also fix #23
