War Era Translations

This repository contains the translation files for War Era. Community contributions are welcome!

Structure

Each locale has its own directory with a messages.po file:

en/messages.po   # English (source locale)
es/messages.po   # Spanish
fr/messages.po   # French
it/messages.po   # Italian
pl/messages.po   # Polish
pt/messages.po   # Portuguese
ro/messages.po   # Romanian
sr/messages.po   # Serbian
tr/messages.po   # Turkish
uk/messages.po   # Ukrainian

How to Contribute

1. Fork this repository
2. Edit the .po file for the language you want to translate
3. Submit a Pull Request

Editing .po files

Each .po file contains entries like this:

#: src/components/SomeComponent.tsx:42
msgid "Hello, world!"
msgstr ""

• msgid is the original English string (do not modify this)
• msgstr is the translation — fill this in for your language
• Lines starting with #: are source references (do not modify)
• Lines starting with #. are developer comments providing context

An empty msgstr "" means the string is untranslated and will fall back to English.

Tools

You can edit .po files with:

• Any text editor
• Poedit — a dedicated .po file editor with a nice UI
• Weblate or similar online tools

Placeholders

Some strings contain placeholders like {0}, {username}, or XML-like tags <0>...</0>. Make sure to keep all placeholders intact in your translation:

msgid "Welcome, {0}!"
msgstr "Bienvenue, {0} !"

msgid "Click <0>here</0> to continue"
msgstr "Cliquez <0>ici</0> pour continuer"

Guidelines

• Do not translate the en/messages.po file (it is the source locale, auto-generated)
• Keep the tone consistent with the game's style
• If you're unsure about a translation, leave a comment on your PR
• Test your changes if possible by running the game locally

Adding a New Language

If you'd like to add support for a new language, please open an issue first so we can discuss it.
