DeFlock Localizations

This directory contains translation files for DeFlock. Each language is a simple JSON file.

Adding a New Language

Want to add support for your language? It's simple:

1. Copy the English file: cp en.json your_language_code.json

   • Use 2-letter language codes: es (Spanish), fr (French), it (Italian), etc.

2. Edit your new file:

   {
     "language": {
       "name": "Your Language Name"  ← Change this to your language in your language
     },
     "app": {
       "title": "DeFlock"  ← Keep this as-is
     },
     "about": {
       "title": "Your Translation Here",
       "description": "Your Translation Here",
       ...
     },
     "actions": {
       "tagNode": "Your Translation Here",
       "download": "Your Translation Here",
       ...
     }
   }
   

3. Submit a PR with your JSON file. Done!

The new language will automatically appear in Settings → Language.

Translation Rules

• Only translate the values (text after the :), never the keys
• Keep {} placeholders if you see them - they get replaced with numbers/text
• Don't translate "DeFlock" - it's the app name
• Use your language's name for itself - "Français" not "French", "Español" not "Spanish"

Current Languages

• en.json - English
• es.json - Español
• fr.json - Français
• de.json - Deutsch
• it.json - Italiano
• pt.json - Português
• zh.json - 中文

Files to Update

For a complete translation, you only need to update:

1. lib/localizations/xx.json - All UI translations including about content

That's It!

No configuration files, no build steps, no complex setup. Add your files and it works.
