Translations

Thank you for your interest in translating Nextcloud Cookbook Android client! I appreciate your help in making it accessible to a wider audience.

Weblate

I have chosen to use Weblate as a platform for translations. Weblate provides an easy-to-use web-based interface that allows translators to collaborate and work on translations.

To get started with translating the app on Weblate, simply visit the translation page and select your preferred language. You can then start translating the app directly on the platform.

There are two components: App and Fastlane.

App contains all strings used in the app.

Fastlane is a collection of app store metadata that is used to submit the app to F-Droid and Play Store.

XML

Please fork the repository, make your changes to the XML files and submit a pull request. Remember to include information about what language it is.

All strings are located in the res/values directory in a file called strings.xml .

For different languages, you create separate directories with the appropriate language code, e.g. res/values-de for German. Copy the strings.xml file into each of the language-specific directories and translate the strings into the appropriate language.

In Android Studio, you can use the translations editor, but you are free to use any text editor you like.
