Introduction

Locale takes the stress out of translating your app's codebase by connecting directly to your GitHub or GitLab instance.

What you’ll need to get started

1. The Login link for Locale (https://app.locale.to/en/)

2. Login information for your Locale instance and your GitLab/GitHub Instance

   1. Note: A trial account can also be taken for free by going to locale.to and selecting the “Get Started” button

   2. Note: Access to GitHub or GitLab is provided to you by your GitHub or GitLab account manager, support team, or contact person. If you are unsure of this information, please contact your system administrator or your GitHub or GitLab representative.

Instructions

1. Start by creating a project in Locale for your repository.

2. Add the connector for either GitHub or GitLab via Locale

   

3. Locale then checks your code to see how internationalization and localization have been set up and configured in your app.

4. Any of the files needed for localization or internationalization (eg. json or yaml) are then checked for changes. Once changes are found, Locale can be configured to automatically recognize these changes and sent for translation, and delivered back to your GitHub or GitLab repository.

   Note: We do not store, nor have access to any other file(s) in your codebase.
