🌍 Localization Guide — Translate FlowInquiry

FlowInquiry supports internationalization using next-intl , and you can help make it accessible in more languages.

No coding skills needed — just basic JSON editing and language knowledge.

📁 Folder Structure

All translation files live in:

• apps
  • frontend
    • messages

Each file contains key-value pairs:

{
  "locale_switcher": {
    "fr": "French",
    "en": "English",
    "label": "EN"
  },
  "common": {
    "buttons": {
      "create": "Create",
      "creating": "Creating ...",
      "clear": "Clear",
      "submit": "Submit",
      "submitting": "Submitting ...",
      "cancel": "Cancel",
      "previous": "Previous",
      ...
    }
  }
}

You only need to update the values — the keys must remain unchanged.

🛠️ How to Contribute a Translation

1. Fork and Clone the Repository

git clone git@github.com:<your-username>/flowinquiry.git
cd flowinquiry

2. Add or Update a Language File To improve an existing language (e.g., fr.json): Open the file in apps/frontend/messages/ and update any missing or incorrect translations.

To add a new language: Copy the English file and rename it with your language code:

cp apps/frontend/messages/en.json apps/frontend/messages/es.json

Then update the values in es.json (Spanish in this example).

3. Submit a Pull Request Once you’re done:

• Commit your .json file and any locale additions

• Push your branch

• Open a pull request on GitHub

Please include:

• Your locale code (e.g., es)

• What you translated or reviewed

• Any context you’d like to share

🙏 Tips

• Focus on quality, natural phrasing over literal translations.

• You can leave values in English if you’re unsure — others can improve them later.

• Don’t worry about perfection — every contribution helps!
