Support Multiple Languages

[hql287]

UPDATE:

Thank you very much for your patience, now you can help translate Manta on Crowdin.

Please follow this instruction to start translating the app.

Thanks!

Original Post:

I think this would be a very nice feature to have. But first, let me know which languages you would like Manta to support.

Did I miss something? Pls let me know in the comment.

Would be nice to have, especially being able to set the texts on the invoice. I'm french and can translate the whole in French if you provides a way to :p

[ghazal]

+1 for this.

[jmrodriguesgoncalves]

I could give this a shot as well. I speak Portuguese, so I could do translation for that language if you want?

[hql287]

@jmrodriguesgoncalves Sure, that would be really great! But I need to find a better way to implement this feature first. It actually was planned for the first release but I was not really happy with the solution, (some feel too hacky, some too overkill) so decided to skip it.

[dertuerke]

Germany u forgot ^^

[SkyzohKey]

You can try that awesome React lib by @Yahoo => https://github.com/yahoo/react-intl

[hql287]

@SkyzohKey: I did and it seemed overkill to me. But probably I'll still give it another go! Thanks!

[erhankaradeniz]

I'd like support for Dutch

[ghost]

We are in great need for having Brazilian Portuguese added to it as there are lots of small and medium start-ups using Open-source software over here...

[ghost]

Also it would be good if there were a field to fill in the Receiver bank account number Thx for the great app.

[JJYing]

I would love to help translating Manta to Chinese!

[ghost]

@hql287 perhaps aspell or enchant can help... Also it would be good if there were a field to fill in the Receiver bank account number Thx for the great app.

[hql287]

@OrionRandD: Can you create a separate issue on this and explain what it does and how it should be implemented? Thanks!

[davidsommer]

German, i would provide the first draft of translation

[SjamonDaal]

Dutch please, I already offered to translate :+1:

[hql287]

Thanks, everyone! 👍 I'll get back to this after releasing v1.1 (expected date is Jan, 11, 2018)

[hql287]

Just added some new options:

• German @davidsommer, @dertuerke
• Dutch @SjamonDaal @erhankaradeniz
• Brazilian Portuguese @OrionRandD

I had to create a new poll since GitHub Polls doens't let me edit the current one. The percentage might not be accurate so just ignore it.

[c0b41]

Turkish 👊

[hql287]

@c0b41 Sure!

[lajlev]

Danish. I will help you do the translations 🤗

[ickas]

And I can help you with portuguese (pt-PT) translation 👊

[DarkSmile92]

I'll do the german translation 👍

[hql287]

Thank you all very much for your patience. I've updated the issue with detail instruction on how to translate Manta on Crowdin

Please let me know if you have any issue. Thanks! 🤗

[ickas]

@hql287 🇵🇹 done!

[DarkSmile92]

German done 👍

[SjamonDaal]

Dutch done! 🙂

[hql287]

@SjamonDaal: I think each translation should have at least 1 upvote in order to be approved. Can you get another Dutch speaking dev to review the translation? Thanks!

[eimantaaas]

Lithuanian would be great. I can help with this translation.

[SjamonDaal]

@hql287 Sure, I'll ask my colleague to translate the file! Will be done tonight. 😉

[hql287]

@SjamonDaal Awesome, thanks! @eimantaaas: That's great. I just added Lithuanian per your request. Thanks! 👍

[nekosheen]

🇫🇷 completed !

[SjamonDaal]

@hql287 Dutch should be done now! 🇳🇱

[hql287]

Hate to break it to you but I just added 2 more files 😅 (and there'are still a few more to come).

[SjamonDaal]

@hql287 Well okay then 😋 I'll continue!

Common.json Item 5, Phone Numner Small typo

[nekosheen]

Small typo > settings.json Item 17 "Open PDF after Exprt" instead of [..]Export

[ickas]

@joaotmdias can you check (here) the portuguese translation?

[filipkominik]

Can you add Czech language support? 🇨🇿

[hql287]

Yes, will you be able to translate?

[rcorzogutierrez]

:es: completed!

[hql287]

Just added invoices translation :)

[codedge]

🇩🇪 completed!

[filipkominik]

@hql287 yes - I will try to translate it ;)

[hql287]

Thanks, @codedge 👍

Also, I just added Czech. You can start translating here. Thanks!

[filipkominik]

@hql287 🇨🇿 completed - but will appreciate any corrections from others (not sure if everything is translated correctly)

[hql287]

@filipkominik Awesome! Can you ask any friend of yours who can speak Czech to check? It's very easy to join, please follow this guide.

Let me know if this works. Thanks

[JJYing]

Simplified Chinese 100% completed

[hql287]

Thanks, Ying 👍. Is it possible for you to get another Chinese dev to check the translation?

[JJYing]

@hql287 Let me spread the word to see if there is anyone to help :D

[JJYing]

By the way, I found that the strings appears in the Invoice templates are not in the translation system and they are directly written in the jsx template files, is it possible to also localize the invoice themselves by selecting language options?

[hql287]

is it possible to also localize the invoice themselves by selecting language options?

@JJYing : Yes, and I'm working on it at the moment 😄. You can track the progress with these little checkboxes.

Btw, I just checked out your portfolio, very impressive!!! 👍
