About translations

Can we translate to other language? There are here in this git a way to add translations?

[jgm]

Translations are fine -- just abide by the license. We haven't put in an infrastructure for translations yet; this might make more sense after the spec has stabilized at 1.0.

Hi guys, any updates on this? I'd like to translate to Ru and Uk languages.

@jgm So will CommonMark become multilingual after ver 1.0?
(I can take Simplified Chinese if anyone would like to know about)

It would be a good start to translate https://commonmark.org/help/ page only, so it can be used as basic usage help for end-users.

That's a really amazing project and I love it. If there is any plan to translate, please contact me at Gmail and I will provide a Chinese translation.

IMHO translating the spec is a futile and counterproductive endeavor. Translating the https://commonmark.org/help/ and https://commonmark.org/help/tutorial/ on the other hand is something I would like to contribute to.

That sounds great! Go for it and I'll be sure to add it!

Hi @coding-horror, can I submit a pull-request with this first sugestion?

It is a set of copy/paste English file to file-IsoLangCode (for example index.html to index-pt.html), with the "only content" translated to the other language.

For all, see also:

• "Translation hub" at README / Translations.

• DIFF example, showing where we must to do translations at help/index.html

• Translated README example, the README-pt.

[coding-horror]

Yes that sounds good! Let's translate the main contents first!

I could do a Dutch translation using @ppKrauss ideas. A translation of both the help page and the tutorial should not be too much of a problem and most useful for those interested.

I recently translated the current specification into Japanese (excluding the tutorial and the help page).
Although the setup is somewhat disorganized, the changes can be freely used under the same license as CommonMark.
