Translation

How to start translating

Before translating

Before contributing to translation of gs2009, I would recommend to search/get:

• The way to translate English to your language fluently
• Actual screenshot of translation in Older Google version (search it like: google ["search"/"images"/"search results" in your language] before:2010)
• Actual Archive from Wayback Machine (e.x. Google Japan, Download it via Wayback Machine Downloader so plain html will be downloaded)

Preparing

1. Fork the repository and name it like: gs2009-es gs2009-es-ar gs2009-Spannish-Translation (recommended for only translation)
2. Copy /html/en, /template/en to /html/[language code], /template/[language code] (e.g. /html/es /template/es)
3. Start the server once if there's no config.json generated
4. Replace "LANGUAGE":"en" to "LANGUAGE":"[language code]" in config.json (e.g. "LANGUAGE":"es")
5. Restart the server

And you're now ready to start translating!
