Start translating

1. Read the translation style guide to understand how to translate the content in a way that matches our voice and tone.

2. Find a file to work on. Go to our Crowdin project > Select a language > Look for any files that don’t say 100% > To the right of the file, click on the three dots button ⋮ > Proofread.

3. Edit or approve strings: Find strings that do not have a green checkmark ✅ next to them. Approve items that look good. Edit items that need imrpovement.
