Localization? - mechamegane - 2025-01-13
I'm not familiar with how string localization is handled on lua + C++ projects, but I couldn't find anything in https://codeberg.org/cool-tech-zone/tangara-fw/src/branch/main/src to PR localized strings to allow languages besides English. Have I missed something?
If there isn't something in place, I would suggest long term integrating localization with Weblate which is open source, widely adopted, easy to use, and has a pro bono hosting for FOSS projects' string localization work

Hi!
Yeah, we unfortunately don't have a great setup for localisation yet. We will need to work something out pretty soon; the sort of centralisation of strings needed to do localisation properly is also quite important for accessibility. Weblate is a good tip, thank you! I'll check it out when we look into localisation more seriously.
