Translator resources

fre:ac uses its own XML based translation file format. Translation files can be found in the i18n/lang folder and can be edited either manually using a text editor or with the smooth Translator utility included with fre:ac.

Windows users can use the fre:ac 1.1.5 translation kit as a starting point.

Linux users can use the continuous builds available under releases (Hint: run the AppImage with --appimage-extract to extract it and access the translation files directly).

Alternatively, you can use the Crowdin translation platform to edit the translations online. The fre:ac project's Crowdin page is found at: https://crowdin.com/project/freac

Submitting translation updates

Translations can be submitted in the following ways:

• Open a pull request.
• Edit the translation on Crowdin.
• Comment here attaching the updated translation.
• Send an email to translations@freac.org.

Thanks everybody for your help!
