All there is to know to localize all together, in a consistent way, with the Proton style.
We have two types of Style Guide:
- A general Style Guide for all languages: Guidance for all languages
- Specific Style Guides for some languages (Style Guide for French, Style Guide for German…)
How to create a new Style Guide?
- The creation of a Style Guide dedicated to a language is driven by the Language Lead.
- When a Language Lead is motivated to create a Style Guide for her/his community, she/he simply informs @PMtranslator.
- Proton localization team will then provide a methodology, some guidance and a template.
How to modify and improve a Style Guide?
- Anyone can propose changes and improvements.
- Make sure your suggestion is endorsed by your Language Lead and your language community: you can ask some feedback creating a dedicated topic in the Translation Feedback sub-category. Doing this, use the tag @yourlanguage in your message. Here is an example.
- Finally, post a reply in your Style Guide topic, making sure your modification request is clear and complete since the person implementing it may not speak your language: please indicate exactly where it should be applied in the Style Guide and provide a text that can be copied and pasted as is.
