Canvas: Multi-language Support

[albertoelias123]

I really liked cnvs / canvas and I will certainly use it in my projects. However, I'm having some language difficulties. My clients speak Portuguese and for this reason I am having to translate the views into my language. When doing this I saw that they have little text and I had the idea to make some adaptations in the project to support multi-languages. Would you like to know how to control for the project by making these adaptations?

Thanks for listening!

Sure. If you’d like to submit a PR with your proposed changes I’d be happy to take a look!

Hello,

First things first, your package is awesome! 👍
If we could publish the canvas views (resources/views), it will permits to fully adapt/translate as we please.

Thx

Currently working on translating the package views. Since the two of you brought this up the first translations are Portugese and French. I'll tag this issue when it's merged in.

I'm also working on the translation. I'm currently replacing all the words in the view with "Translation Strings" as per the Laravel (Localization) documentation.

One thing that I'm noticing off the bat that will cause issues with being translated are input placeholders. Once the bulk of the content is translated I'll put some thought into these.

Tell me if I can help?
Maybe review the French translation?

[austintoddj]

Will do. Almost got it all wrapped up here so I'll let you know and you can see how well Google Translate did for me 😅

Hahaha You should try deepl :)

Go ahead and upgrade your apps to the latest version and let me know if any of the translations look incorrect to you.

The base Laravel project that you have Canvas installed in will determine the locale that the app uses.

Let me know if you have any questions!

Thanx @austintoddj, I'm gonna check that :)

Sorry @austintoddj, I edited online so you may have 5-6 waiting PR.
Thanx a lot
