Is there a way to translate it into another language, or ideally, have a multiple language version?

I could imagine having a different Web-container, pointing to the same database could solve the multi language.

Would that work?

  • Git clone into a new directory
  • Change all the texts in the files to the desired language
  • Make a link to the "real" db.sqlite3 file in the new directory

Whoops, I missed this issue. Sorry to answer so late.

Is there a way to translate it into another language

Yes, it is rather easy to do with Django. But because of poor design, it would require some work and heavy refactoring to implement it in IHateToBudget.

[...] or ideally, have a multiple language version?

I am not sure how easy it is to implement.

Would that work?

  • Git clone into a new directory
  • Change all the texts in the files to the desired language
  • Make a link to the "real" db.sqlite3 file in the new directory

Probably, but:

  • IMO, this is awful.
  • This raises questions about the integrity and atomicity of data.
