We'd love your help to translate QGroundControl, and our guides for PX4, QGroundControl and MAVLink!
Our docs (and QGroundControl) use the Crowdin online tool for translation. Crowdin automatically imports source topics from Github and presents new and changed strings for translation and/or review (approval). Crowdin automatically imports source topics from Github and presents new and changed strings for translation and/or review (approval).
Crowdin exports the translated documents back out to Github as a "Pull Request" (which the development team periodically review and accept). The exported output contains the source document with any translated and approved text replaced with translated strings (i.e. if a string is not translated/is changed, then it will be displayed in English).

:::tip You will need a (free) Crowdin account account to join the translation team! :::
Gitbook uses special prefix text to indicate Notes, Tips and Warnings (e.g. > **Note**, > **Tip**, > **Warning**). This is displayed in Crowdin as shown: Readers will not be mislead by old and out of date translations.
