lang++

A collection of code editing tools with support for non-English languages.

✔️ Purpose

Most widely-used programming languages are English-based, making the learning process difficult for many non-English speakers intending to use these languages in their studies and/or careers. lang++ addresses this issue using the translation functionality shown above.

🥅 Goals

  • Expand language-programming language translation database
    • As of now, lang++ supports 2 lang-prog lang combinations (Chinese and Spanish to C++)
  • Incorporate machine learning
    • Improve translation accuracy
    • Consider context when suggesting autocompletions

See issues for detailed tasks and descriptions.
