Volunteer Wanted

Hey, guys! We are going to provide English documentation.

But we are short of staff :-( So, we want some volunteers to help us to translate antd-mobile's documentation into English. Every translation task needs a translator and a reviewer. Both of them are expected that they had used the component(Menu Drawer etc...) in real world.

Translator

A translator should be familiar with both Chinese and English.

If you want to be a volunteer translator, just comment this issue. For example, "I want to be the translator of button and modal ....". And then, we will update this issue(e.g. button (translator: @benjycui, reviewer: @waywardmonkeys )), and ping you.

Contributing:

Fork ant-design-mobile and git clone
Create a branch starting at master and name it as translation-button
npm install && npm start, see: Development
Find Markdown files under components/xxx(xxx is the component which you need to translate), index.md and demo/*.md use different format, see: https://github.com/ant-design/ant-design/issues/1423
Just translate it, and you had better read our advice first.
Create a pull request to ant-design-mobile:master when your translation is done, and ping your reviewer.
PR will be merged, if your reviewer think it is OK.

See:

Reviewer

A reviewer should be a native English speaker.

If you want to be a volunteer reviewer, just comment this issue. For example, "I want to be the reviewer of button and alert...". And then, we will update this issue(e.g. button (translator: @benjycui, reviewer: @waywardmonkeys )), and ping you.

After your corresponding translator finish his/her work, you should review and provide some advice.

Update by @paranoidjk

Start to Translate :tada: :tada:

Since https://github.com/ant-design/ant-design-mobile/pull/907 had been merged to master. The next step is to translate.

We need help, please feel free to open a Pull Request 😄

How to ?

git clone [email protected]:ant-design/ant-design-mobile.git
cd antd-mobile
npm install
npm start

Then open http://127.0.0.1:8001 on your favorite browser, you will see that the default language of the site had been changed to English.

but the homepage will auto detect your system language

and still you can switch to Chinese by click the button on the upper right corner of page

Tasks

[x] all files which extension name is .en-US.md should be translate to English.

include components/{foo}/index.md, and /doc/react/{bar}.md , and wiki page
right now the content of foo.en-US.md is just a copy of it's Chinese version foo.zh-CN.md
[x] all components/{foo}/demo/{bar}.md should change it's title syntax.

see Flex or CheckboxItem as a example

Perhaps in doing this after October 31. In addition, can you help us do it.

warmhug on 9 Oct 2016

I would be glad to help with spelling mistakes (in English), but I don't speak Chinese! 😅

belohlavek on 9 Oct 2016

@benjycui will be responsible for this

yiminghe on 12 Oct 2016

Will do this after 1.0 is published, for API is unstable now.
