Locale: How do translations with GitLab work?

Locale makes translating your applications on GitHub a breeze. Learn how professionals use Locale.

Translating any applications is cumbersome. With Locale it is as simple as connecting your repository to your Locale's workspace.

So how does the process go once you just did that?

On your project's page, you can see all the languages that are present in your application. If you already have internationalized your application, the list of languages could be substantial or if you are just starting with translating, it is maybe just English.

When you buy translations for one or multiple languages. Your i18n files are send over to a professional translator, along with the term base for your project. You can see that the translation is in progress on the project's page.

After all the translation work is done, a Merge Request is created on GitLab with all the new translations.

From there a product owner or developer can review and merge at there convenience.
