We also encourage you to provide feedback or make contributions to our developer docs in GitHub.

Contributing to Internationalizing Our Documentation

Contributing to the internationalization of our documentation is a rewarding way to support our project and enhance its accessibility. We follow the "docs-as-code" model, which treats documentation as code, making it easier for both developers and non-developers to contribute. Here's a simple set of steps you can take to make an open-source contribution to our internationalization efforts:

Step 1

First off, you should be making contributions to this documentation repository (opens in a new tab) on GitHub.

Step 2

Once you've opened a new branch, you will need to make updates the following updates before translating any content:

In next.config.js, please add the language code of the language you are working with to i18n > locales.

Example:

const withNextra = require('nextra')({
  theme: 'nextra-theme-docs',
  themeConfig: './theme.config.tsx'
})
 
module.exports = withNextra({
  i18n: {
    locales: ['en', 'zh', 'de'],
    defaultLocale: 'en'
  }
})

In theme.config.jsx, please make sure to add your language under i18nto configure the language dropdown.

Example:

i18n: [
  { locale: 'en', text: 'English' },
  { locale: 'zh', text: '中文' },
  { locale: 'de', text: 'Deutsch' },
  { locale: 'ar', text: 'العربية', direction: 'rtl' }
]

Step 3

Next, you will duplicate all the files that you intend on translating and change the file name to have the locale codes as your file extension.

Example:

/pages
  _meta.en.json
  _meta.zh.json
  _meta.de.json
  index.en.md
  index.zh.md
  index.de.md
  ...

Step 4.

Translate the content into the chosen language.

Step 5

Create a pull request to submit the translated pages to the team for review.

Step 6

Check back periodically to see what changes have been made to the docs so you can help adjust the translated pages.
