Need translation workflow?

[sotayamashita]

In open source community, translation is important but it is very difficult so we are creating localization tool to help translated ones updated as well. 💯 Its name is GitLocalize. The reason that we built it was translation problem of Node.js.

It have been used in "forked GitHub - vuejs/vue-ssr-docs, GitLocalize - vuejs/vue-ssr-docs". Japanese team are translating it into Japanese now. So I think it is a time to try our service in original vue-ssr-docs community. We provide these features below:

• Have a split view to make people translate
• When original one is updated, we will notify translators
• Translation flow looks like a GitHub flow:
  1. Sync GitHub and GitLocalize
  2. Translate
  3. Create a review request such as Pull Request of GitHub
  4. GitLocalize will create pull request to GitHub repository
  5. And merge. That's it ✨

Looking forward to hearing your thoughts 😄

As @sotayamashita said, vuejs japanese community team are translating vuejs/vue-ssr-docs with using GitLocalize now.
I actually tried using it, I feel that it's an awesome servicei!

In addition to vue-ssr-docs, I think vuejs documentation (vue-router, vuex, vue-loader, and vuejs.org!) should be translated by vue.js communities.

Hi @sotayamashita - this looks very helpful! A few questions:

• After the users translate on GitLocalize, how and when does GitLocalize submit the PRs back to GitHub? Just watched the tutorial video, got it now.
• I created a project for vuejs/vue-ssr-docs - how do we merge the current ongoing efforts in the fork back to the actual repo?
• Also, noticed that the free plan only allows for 1 repo - is it possible to allow a few more for open source projects? I think that would help with the adoption of the service...

Thanks!

I am sorry not to reply quickly.

We will merge it so you do not have to do anything. ✨

100% non-profit OSS are free. 💯 . If it is non-profit and public, users can integrate with any repositories. Vue.js is non-profit so we will enable you to integrate with any repositories.
