🌐 How to Translate Khronos

✏️ First Things First

Fork the repository here on github with the Fork button at the top-right.
Clone this repository by opening the terminal in a folder of your choice and typing git clone https://github.com/<you_username>/khronos
(Optional) Check Regenerate translations files section if files haven't been recently updated.

📃 Basics

You'll need to know your language's code (ex. en = English).
Add that code to the LINGUAS file, in a new line, after the last line.
Translate the .pot file using the PO editor of your choice (I recommend POEdit).
Save it as <language_code>.po in this folder.

📝 Not so Basics

Next, in the folder you've cloned this repo in, open a terminal and type: git checkout -b "Translation <language code>
Then, type git add *
Finally, git commit -m "Translated your app for <Language Name>" && git push, follow the instructions in the terminal if need be, then type your github username and password.

And that's it! You've successfully translated Khronos for your language!

🔁 Regenerate translations files

Initialize the project build by typing meson _build (make sure you have dependencies installed!).
Compile .pot files, type meson compile -C _build io.github.lainsce.Khronos-pot.
(Optional) Compile .po files instead replacing -pot with -update-po in the previous command.

Note: install appstream package in order to generate release strings.
