Unofficial 🇯🇵 Japanese Translation of INTMAX Docs

[oooawe]

Hello INTMAX team and community!

I wanted to let you know that I've started an unofficial Japanese translation of the INTMAX documentation.

As someone who has been following the INTMAX protocol closely, I'm impressed by the elegance of the stateless rollup design and want to help make it accessible to the growing Japanese-speaking web3 community.

Links:

• Translation repository: https://github.com/oooawe/intmax-docs-ja
• Live site (GitBook): https://zkpaw.gitbook.io/intmax-ja/

A few things to note:

• This is entirely unofficial and community-driven. It is not endorsed by or affiliated with the INTMAX team.
• The translation is derived from the intmax2-docs repo under the MIT License, with the original copyright and license fully preserved.
• The official documentation at https://docs.network.intmax.io should always be treated as the authoritative source.

I'm also running a similar translation project for zERC20 (docs-ja), so this follows the same methodology and quality standards.

A note on the future of this project

I'm fully aware that AI-powered translation is advancing rapidly. We've already seen what happened with the Mozilla Japanese localization community, where AI-generated contributions eventually made the volunteer effort unsustainable. Realistically, within the next six months or so, tools like Claude or similar AI systems will likely be able to produce high-quality translations on the fly — perhaps even directly from the official documentation page itself.

So this translation project may have a limited lifespan, and I'm at peace with that. If it helps even a few Japanese-speaking developers or users better understand and adopt INTMAX in the meantime, it will have been worth the effort.

If the team has any concerns or guidelines for community translations, I'd love to hear them. Feedback and suggestions are always welcome!

Thank you for the incredible work on INTMAX 🧬
