Localization for Store page #221

Open clzls opened 5 years ago

clzls commented 5 years ago

After the successful publish of this tool in Microsoft Store, let's do some polish work, such as writing descriptions in different languages, listing all languages we support or so.

craigwi commented 5 years ago

That would be great.

That would be great.

@craigwi I'm not familiar with Store, is there any ways to do localizations now? In Store it still says "Provides only in English(US)" now... It's confusing.

It looks like there are three language specific fields that need to be provided. This is what we have for en-US:

Name: Windows File Manager Description: Window File Manager reborn. Project is maintained on https://github.com/microsoft/winfile. What's New: Cumulative fixes through March 2024; see Github for details.

If we have these strings for any other language, I'll try to update the store listing with those.

Are they stored anywhere in the source tree? I didn't found them...

It hadn't been checked in before, so I raised a PR to merge this text in #444 .

Note that the store listing itself is defined from human interaction with a web page, so this isn't automatically consumed; currently all I can do is manual copy + paste.

I see. In my imagination it would be some .appxmanifest files or whatever fancy long extensions... Once the PR is accepted we could make some translations in different languages. By the way, may it be better to use some format like JSON or YAML to make the file self-descriptive? A .txt seems to be a bit confusing when other guys see it.

Update: I see in nuget/winfile.nuspec there are some descriptions of WinFile too. Maybe they should also be taken into considerations.
