## How this works

At the moment we are busy externalising all of our strings, so the only two areas that currently work are:

1.  Timestamps in chat
2.  Homepage

## Homepage instructions

The homepage strings are kept in the homepage directory

## Additional areas of the application

We will continue to expand on the entire application over time. Please watch this repository for updates

## Testing

It possible to visit the site with the lang query parameter, ex. https://gitter.im/?redirect=no&lang=ko.

Or you can change the browser main language in Chrome in [Language Settings](chrome://settings/languages) by putting tested language [at the top of the list](https://stackoverflow.com/a/36074203/606571).

## Generating keys and placeholders

Generation and formatting happens automatically when linking this package to `webapp`

- `npm link` in this package
- `npm link '@gitterhq/translations'` in `webapp`

and then starting the `webapp` and going to:
