jerod Posted 22 hours ago Posted 22 hours ago The translation platform is live. Thanks to everyone who volunteered in this thread. Here are the instructions to get started. Where to go Head to translate.hexos.com and click Sign in. It uses your existing HexOS account, so there's nothing to register and nothing to be granted. If you can log in to HexOS, you can start translating right now. What you'll find We're running Weblate, the same open-source translation platform used by projects like Fedora and LibreOffice. Everything happens in your browser: no tools to install, no technical background needed. Just you, the English text, and a box to type your translation into. There are about 2,800 strings that make up the HexOS interface, and you can filter by area (storage, apps, tasks, and so on) if you'd rather focus on one corner at a time. Getting started Sign in at translate.hexos.com Open the Deck component and add your language (or join one that's already started) Start translating. Weblate saves as you go, and you can stop and pick it back up whenever you like. Same as Jon said: no deadlines, no commitments A few things worth knowing Placeholders like `{name}` or `{count}` need to stay exactly as they are. Move them around to fit your grammar, just don't translate what's inside the braces. Brand terms (HexOS, Command Deck, TrueNAS, ZFS) stay in English everywhere. They're marked in the built-in glossary so you don't have to memorize them. Not sure about a string? Leave a comment on it right in Weblate. We monitor those, and other translators can weigh in too. How your work reaches users Every translation goes through a review step before it ships, so don't worry about making mistakes. Nothing goes live until a reviewer approves it. We'll mark you all as reviewers once you start here soon, and once a language reaches 60% approved coverage, it ships with the next HexOS release and appears in the language picker. Below that threshold, the lang simply isn't offered yet, so nobody ever sees a half-translated interface. New strings will flow into Weblate automatically as we build new features, and the platform should email you when there's new material in your language. The full guide (with translation guidelines and how everything works under the hood) lives on the docs site: Translating HexOS. Let me know if you have any questions or something is off. Thank you! 2
