This project adheres to the Electron organization's [code of conduct][].

## Using Crowdin
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Electron's localization effort uses [Crowdin][], an awesome platform for collaborative translation.
|
|
|
|
|
Translations made on Crowdin are periodically pulled into this repository, and changes made to the
|
|
|
|
|
source content is periodically uploaded to Crowdin.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Translating
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Here are some guidelines to keep in mind as a translator:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Don't open pull requests to translate Electron; instead, do all translations on Crowdin.
|
|
|
|
|
- Do not translate JavaScript keywords like `String`, `Event`, `Array`, `Class`, etc.
|
|
|
|
|
- Do not translate Electron classes, method names, event names, etc.
|
|
|
|
|
- If you find an error in the source English docs, open a pull request on the
|
|
|
|
|
[electron/electron][] repository, not on the website repository.

|
### Proofreading
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
On Crowdin, the **proofreader** role allows you to approve submitted translations.
|

|
|
|
If you would like to be promoted to proofreader status on the Electron project, please
|
2023-01-24 00:40:19 +03:00
|
|
|
please reach out in the #website-i18n channel in our [community Discord server][].
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
When contacting us, please include a link to your existing translations on the project (minimum
|
|
|
|
|
1000 words).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Glossary
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The Crowdin Glossary is **programatically generated**. It defines terms to give
|
|
|
|
|
translators context when translating in the Crowdin interface, and to help avoid
|
|
|
|
|
translations of strings like `Array` and `win.open()` that should remain in
|
|
|
|
|
their original "English" form. It includes entries for JavaScript builtins,
|
|
|
|
|
Electron API names, method names, event names, etc.
