i18n and l10n support #2

Open teolemon opened 3 years ago

There's only one string that could be translated at the moment in the manifest.
Let's take the advantage to tackle translations early, even before we start adding foreign stores.
We'll then be able to automate translation updates using Crowdin and Githhub Actions, like we do on the other repositories.

I never work with Crowdin nor Github Actions. Do you have examples of crowdin globalisation files ?

teolemon commented 3 years ago

The two links above are the config files needed by Crowdin. You need to change the path, and it should work with whatever l10n file is standard for browser extensions. Chrome has a framework for l10n it seems: https://developer.chrome.com/docs/extensions/reference/i18n/

Why openfoodfacts is on Crowdin I never understood. It is just the opposite of Weblate in any conceivable way. Why go there? It is neither "open" nor "empowering users".

Just the quality of the general openfoodfacts stringbase alone is enough to warrant looking for alternatives. Not my call, but happy to help.
