Hope to improve official multilingual support as soon as possible to avoid (potential) conflict #68

In fact, this Issue is not to ask the author for anything, but a reminder for those who want to do multilingual translation in the future, let him/her/they know that someone is already doing translation work in a certain language, because I have seen that there is no Issue about multi-language support, so I plan to translate directly and submit a PR initially.

However, before start to translate, I took a glance at the currently active forks... It's amazing, there are already two forks working at the Chinese(Simplified) at the same time:

Content comparison by @Steve-xmh vs Content Comparison by @justjavac

Finally, I think I should point out that I'm just a passer-by, so while I hope that if possible any developer looking to translate "youre-the-os" can reply here which language that he/she/they want to add, my advocacy has nothing to do with the original author and does not represent the opinions of plbrault

其实这个Issue并不是为了向作者请求什么，因为我看了一下没有任何一个Issue是关于多语言支持的，因此我就打算直接动手翻译然后交一个PR

不过，在开做之前，看了一下目前活跃的fork……不得了，已经有甲乙两队在同时施工了

@Steve-xmh 的内容对比 与 @justjavac 的内容对比，都是添加中文（简体）的多语言支持

(因此我保留了这段中文Issue文本，希望下一个想要翻译它的人不要再发明一次轮子，感觉本项目在短时间内获得的关注与中文编程社区内的快速传播有密切关系)

This is amazing indeed! If someone wants to submit a PR to implement multilingual support, I will happily look into it! And I can volunteer myself for a French translation!

I tried one of the Chinese forks, and noticed that the loading time is exponentially longer. Is this a font issue? What are possible solutions?

Is this a font issue?

this font is huge.

I've only briefly looked through the forks regarding this, but it looks like nobody's implemented proper i18n/l10n support, correct?

Anyway CJK fonts are going to be significantly larger than their Latin counterparts no matter what. I think the smallest Japanese font, for example, I have installed on my system is a little over 2MB (IBM Plex Sans JP), but they range up to 50MB (Noto Serif CJK). Ideally I feel like these should just be loaded from the system, if possible? I haven't yet looked at the repository's contents yet.

How it it going? As soon as someone structure to have other languages files I will start to contribute in PT-BR translation.

Maybe we could use something like python-i18n
