RW7 community based translation in different languages

I know this is a tedious topic, sorry for jumping on this again. If you say it is a no-go, fine for me :wink:

I had a quick look into the English.lproj folder and the .strings file there.
Copying it to German.lproj, I was able to insert German based translations.
I do not know, but if this file only covers 80% of all cases, it would be better than nothing.

I know that translating applications into other languages is expensive. But I know that, at least in the German community, there are enough people available who would do this for free (–> community based).

Is there the chance that you provide the (Github?) based platform for adding such translated texts, and the community is able to jump in and perform the translations?

Cheers, Jannis

It’s not so much the act of getting things translated, it’s the substantial time it takes to get the localisations QA’d (and layout quirks sorted), as well as needing to integrate things in the (constantly changing) RW code base.

Yes, I see.
Just to let you know: If you decide to go this way, some volunteers would be there eager to help :slight_smile:
