Translations

Fork this repository
Work on the translations. The translation strings are in config.toml. You can use these resources for help:
- https://www.getzola.org/documentation/content/multilingual/
- https://www.getzola.org/documentation/templates/pages-sections/
For markdown pages (pages in /content where the content is written in markdown), you need to create a new markdown file for the translated version e.g page-name.{language_code}.md.
Add your language to the lang_map macro in templates/macros/body.html

Important Notes:

You must translate the about page and the home page
To translate strings in config.toml phrase by phrase, copy and paste the original english translations then replace each phrase over time.
Feel free to ask for help. You can ask in the issue you created or in the discussions page.
