In General

If you’ve never contributed to a project before, this guide is a good place to start. It’s also available in multiple languages.

Translations

The translations are located in /src/_locales/. Beneath this directory each language is split into its own directory. In the language directory the translations are structured in the messages.json file.

For deeper insight it’s recommended to read the Internationalization guide for web extensions.

Update translation

1. Open the messages.json file for the target language.
2. Alter the message text for the translation to update.

Add language

1. Create a directory with the short language code. Allowed are identifiers like de_DE or de, where the latter is the fallback.
2. Copy the messages.json file from the directory en in the new directory.
3. Replace all messages.
4. For pluralRule please see this definition. Current implemented rules are 0, 1, 2, 7 and 9 within the utility function getPluralForm();
