## How to Contribute
|
|
|
|
Contributing translations to the Meshtastic Apple app helps make the project accessible to a wider audience. Follow these steps to add translations for a new language:
|
|
|
|
1. **Fork the Repository**: Start by forking the [Meshtastic-Apple repository](<https://github.com/meshtastic/Meshtastic-Apple/tree/main>) to your GitHub account.
|
|
2. **Create a Language Folder**: In your forked repository, create a new folder for your language using the language code followed by `.lproj`. For example, for German, create a folder named `de.lproj`.
|
|
3. **Copy the Localizable.strings File**: Navigate to the [English strings folder](<https://github.com/meshtastic/Meshtastic-Apple/blob/main/en.lproj/Localizable.strings>) and copy the `Localizable.strings` file. Paste this file into the folder you created in the previous step.
|
|
4. **Translate the Strings**: Open the `Localizable.strings` file in your language folder and translate the English strings into your language. Be sure to maintain the format of the file.
|
|
5. **Create a Pull Request**: Once you've completed the translation, create a new pull request from your forked repository to the main Meshtastic-Apple repository. Title the pull request appropriately (e.g., "Add German Translation") and describe the changes you've made.
