Help wanted: Translations #22
Description
As I am the only one making this software, it is difficult to make translations manually, and because it is a fan project, I don't want to spend money into a paid translation service.
So, I am searching for a volunteer who would accept to help me to create translations. If you are interested, please directly comment this issue, and I will give you more precision.
Note
To start, you can send me some pull requests. If you give me several times quality content, I will directly give you push access.

@eliotttak hey I would love to help with this... if its okay.
eliotttak commentedon Nov 21, 2025
@prajeeta15
Yes, of course it's OK! As I said above, I am always looking for translators.
It's 8 pm here in France, so I'll give you all the necessary information tomorrow (or maybe on Monday – sorry, I'm going away for the weekend). I will try to do it as soon as possible.
Thanks in all cases!

@prajeeta15 Could you please let me know what time zone you are in (GMT +/- X) and your location (preferably more specific than just saying 'in America', as New York and Washington, for example, do not have the same time zone)? Also, could you let me know what times you are available to receive messages? Thank you.

@prajeeta15 On your Behance page, I can find you are in India, that means when I sent the message it was 01h37AM? Could you let me know if that's OK?
prajeeta15 commentedon Nov 22, 2025
@eliotttak yes, I am based in India -> IST time zone (GMT-5.30). I can receive messages and work during: 8 am to 12 midnight IST.
"I can find you are in India, that means when I sent the message it was 01h37AM? Could you let me know if that's OK?" - yup it's okay :)

Hello @prajeeta15,
I'm sorry, but in France, that would mean I would have to send messages between 4 a.m. and 8 a.m. That's not possible. If you don't agree to receive and read messages at another time, we won't be able to work together. Otherwise, that's fine with me; it doesn't bother me at all!
Note: I don't mean to be offensive; I'm just stating the facts!

@eliotttak it's okay, you can send me messages at a time that works for you, I check my messages on github and my mails quite often. lmk the time that works for you.
eliotttak commentedon Nov 22, 2025
@prajeeta15 I am available to work from 4 or 5 p.m. to 6 p.m., and sometimes during my study hours at school. You can send me messages at any time; I will read them and reply when I check my email.
prajeeta15 commentedon Nov 22, 2025
@eliotttak cool works out for me
eliotttak commentedon Nov 22, 2025
@prajeeta15 Would you like me to explain how to help me now?
prajeeta15 commentedon Nov 22, 2025
@eliotttak yeah sure

You'll have to fork my projet, and to clone it locally (it's not mandatory, but as it you'll can use your favorite IDE and make one commit for all).
Then, in the folder
/translationFiles/, there are many files calledtranslate-ab-CD.json. As you can guess, the translation are inside. The source file will been-GB, but sometimes I'll have the time to make alsofr-FR. In this commit, all the files are complete, but if you want you can check them.In the files, there is this structure:
{ "salutations": { "hello": "Hello, World!", "key": "text" }, "group": {} }The only thing you have to do is translate the values into another language (into another file). Obviously, do not modify the keys, else, the program won't recognize the translations, and there will be nothing in place of the text.
For the key
CommonThings.Time, the format is{%d: number of hours} {%s: CommonThings.Hour(s)}, {%02d: number of minutes} {%s: CommonThings.Minute(s)} and {%02d.%06d: number of seconds} {%s: CommonThings.Second(s)}.Thanks very much!
