Contributing Translations

Just go to https://crowdin.com/project/ipfs-companion and start translating!

If your language is not present in add-on/_locales yet, but is supported by mainstream browsers please create a new issue requesting it 👍

Same if anyone want to become a proofreader for a specific language:

Difference between translators and proofreaders:

  • translators can suggest translations for empty or translated strings and vote on existing ones
  • proofreader can translate and suggest (of course) but will lose their Voting feature to get a more powerful "Proofreader " button that allows them to approve or reject translations

Don't worry if GitHub does not reflect translations added at Crowdin: translations are merged manually before every release.

It is a good idea to opt-in for email notifications about any new strings in future: https://crowdin.com/settings#email

Thanks again for your translations!

Running Chrome with specific locale

Chrome comes with locales out of the box, so it is enouh to set proper env:

LANGUAGE=pl chromium --user-data-dir=`mktemp -d`

Running Firefox with specific locale

Unless user installed locale-specific build, Firefox will have English only.
If your build already has the locale you are interested in, skip step #2.

  1. Set intl.locale.requested in about:config or commandline via:
    web-ext run --pref intl.locale.requested=pl
    
  2. Install language pack from https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/language-tools/
  3. Reload browser extension – it should detect new locale
