The code blocks for different languages need to be changed synchronously

[dongxuwang]

The non English version would not update whenever someone updates the code in some code block for the English version. For instance,
This commit updated some lines in the code block:
https://docs.scala-lang.org/tour/pattern-matching.html
However, others did not:

yes, volunteers are needed to keep the translations up to date with the English originals.

how can join? i am a chinese scala engineer

[SethTisue]

@jxnu-liguobin welcome! you can just start sending pull requests. they don't need to be perfect or complete — any kind or amount of improvement is welcome. the repo README has info on the technical aspects of contributing. English-language help is available on https://gitter.im/scala/contributors . feel free to ask questions, even lots of questions

Do we maybe need a meta issue of how to keep track of what updates have and haven't been translated to what languages, or is that overdoing it?

[SethTisue]

@martijnhoekstra My guess is that the volunteer effort to keep that updated across all languages probably doesn't exist, but volunteers might exist for doing that for particular languages.

Anyone interested in coordinating an effort around a particular language is welcome to open a language-specific issue in this repo. (I suggest one issue per language, multiples would be too noisy for repo watchers.)
