Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/actualbudget/actual/issues/3329

We are currently in the process of translating Actual into various languages.

Can I start translating things?

Yes! See below for details.

How can I help?

For translators:

  • We're using Weblate to manage all translations. You'll need to make an account and enable 2-factor authentication in order to contribute.
  • Please make sure you follow the general contributing guidelines.
  • On top of helping translate new strings, please also consider helping out by upvoting good translations! We don't approve translations until they receive at least two upvotes, so every vote counts.
  • If you see any mistranslation or malicious contribution, please flag it in this channel for an admin to take action.
  • To ensure a high bar for quality of translations, we'll only be initially including languages in the app with at least 50% of strings translated. We'll revise this policy as needed.

For developers:

Thanks for helping make Actual accessible to more people!

How do I report strings that seem to be untranslated, although Weblate says that the language is wholly translated?

Likely this means the string is not properly marked for translation—possible, as Actual receives lots of contributions and it's hard to make sure everything stays translated. I would confirm by switching to another language, and if the string is still missing, open a GitHub issue so someone can take on the code change.

▎ Simplified Chinese (zh-Hans) has reached 50%+ on Weblate

▎ I wanted to flag that the Simplified Chinese translation has now crossed the 50% threshold required for inclusion in official builds:

▎ - Current status: 50.3% translated (989 / 1963 strings)
▎ - Weblate component: https://hosted.weblate.org/projects/actualbudget/actual/zh_Hans/

▎ Based on the criteria mentioned in this issue ("we'll only be initially including languages in the app with at least 50% of strings translated"), zh-Hans should now qualify for inclusion.

▎ Could a maintainer enable it in the build? I'm actively working to bring coverage even higher. Thank you!

Hi—our build pipeline will automatically pick it up for the next release once it passes the 50% threshold
