Things to do before launching (a preview of) translations

[yatil]

Not necessarily in this order:

Implementing Translations

• [x] Develop translation UI from the prototypical implementation and add to the style guide. (6h)
  • [x] Add CSS
    • [x] Implementing RTL CSS (maybe later: 6–12h)
  • [x] Add JS
  • [x] Add Templates
  • [x] Add components to existing templates

  • [x] Make sure video player displays language selections in their native language (done: w3c/wai-website-theme-beta@88f7e84453f84ceeb3322a630ab8f95156062554, w3c/wai-video-standards-and-benefits@a1d45804069de820a0ebf4e22d93d6407ec72426 and w3c/wai-video-standards-and-benefits@a962bf68b4ffc1656973a0a8c6f373f107367115)
  • [x] Add and clean up logic in beta theme

  • [x] First implementation: https://deploy-preview-125--wai-website.netlify.com/translations/
  • [ ] Gather feedback
  • [ ] Implement feedback

Adjust search to only search in the current language (6h)

In 1:1 we said: Probably want option available to get either results only in that language, or all results. SLH to do analysis. Low priority.

Some thoughts to make sure we're in synch. We can discuss in Feb as useful.

Make sure video player displays language selections in their native language (this might be more complicated in the end, needs investigation.)

Good to have, though maybe not showstopper for soft launch.

Prepare repositories that have translations or will have translations soon

/me can do some of this

Figuring out and documenting the translation process

/me planning on doing/helping with most of this documentation

Adjustments to the translations overview page

I think you're handling the All WAI Translations page and I'm handling the Translating WAI Documents page.

/me unpinned thinking it was just in her view... then realized it probably was for all, so re-pinned. :-/

Hi Eric, you probably already know about this I18N guidance on R-to-L.
