Translation Guide

Thank you for helping translate this project!
Please follow the steps below to add a new language:

---

1. Create a Language Folder

• Inside the locals/ folder, create a new folder for your language.
• The folder name must use the correct language code (ISO-style).
  • Examples:
    • English → en
    • Spanish → es
    • French → fr

---

2. Copy the Base Translation File

• Go to the English folder:

  locals/en/translation.json
  

• Copy the file into your new language folder.
  Example for Spanish:

  locals/es/translation.json
  

---

3. Translate the Values

• Translate only the values of each key.
• Do not modify the keys.
• Keep spaces, punctuation, and formatting identical.
• Do not translate anything inside double curly brackets ({{ }}).

Example:

"welcomeMessage": "Welcome, {{username}}!"

• ✅ Correct: "Bienvenido, {{username}}!"
• ❌ Wrong: "Bienvenido, {{nombreDeUsuario}}!"

4. Add Your Language to localeslist.js

Open localeslist.js and add your language entry: The (languageName) property SHOULD be translated to the given langugae

{
  languageName: 'Español',
  fullySupported: true,
  translatedName: 'languages.spanish',
  id: 'es',
  flagCode: 'es',
},

5. Update i18n.js

Open i18n.js and do the following:

1. Import your translation file at the top:

   import esTranslation from './locals/es/translation.json';
   

2. Add your language code to supportedLngs:

   supportedLngs: ['en', 'es'],
   

3. Add your translation to the resources object:

   resources: {
     en: { translation: enTranslation },
     es: { translation: esTranslation },
   },
