Are there any plans to add multi-language support in subsequent releases? #158

Add multi-language settings to the client

shonumi commented 10 months ago

With the Qt interface, it should be easy enough to replace most of the text for the application. However, I'd probably only implement this if someone contributes a translation for a language they're proficient in. Machine translation is always an option, but I'd rather have a native speaker verifying the final text.

I think I can help translate one or more languages, of course it is based on the native language.

How do I submit a translated text?

Going through the code and giving it a quick once-over, most strings in the program are constants in the code, so this would need some changes on that end. But beyond that, I'd gladly offer up some time helping with a translation effort.

It might also be interesting to look into services like POEditor or Crowdin for organizing the strings and making contributions to translating a bit easier for others.
