Overview

This page describes how to contribute a translation to a brdgm.me Solo Helper Application. It uses the Ark Nova Solo Helper as example, but works for all applications found in GitHub.

This page describes the simplest approach by sending the translation via email.

Identify the English master file

Each Solo Helper Application has an English master file located inside the code repository at src/locales/en.json. You find all GitHub repositories of the applications at https://github.com/brdgm.

The English Master file for Ark Nova is located at https://github.com/brdgm/ark-nova-solo-helper/blob/develop/src/locales/en.json

Download the master file

Download the master file via the "Raw" button. Save it with the 2-letter ISO 639-1 language code of the target language (e.g. "fr.json" for french).
