How to contribute

Updating a translation

1. Update the translation value
2. Run one of the following:

   yarn build
   // or
   npm build
   // or
   pnpm build
   

Adding a new translation

1. Add the new translation key/value pair for all languages located in the <payload-repo-root>/packages/translations/src/languages folder
2. Run one of the following:

   yarn build
   // or
   npm build
   // or
   pnpm build
   

Adding a new language

1. Create a new TS file in the <payload-repo-root>/packages/translations/src/languages folder, use the language code as the file name (e.g. <payload-repo-root>/packages/translations/src/languages/en.ts for English)
2. Copy all translations from an existing language file and update all of the translations to match your new language
3. Run one of the following:

   yarn build
   // or
   npm build
   // or
   pnpm build
   

4. Import and export your new language file from within <payload-repo-root>/packages/translations/src/exports/all.ts
5. Re-export the file from within <payload-repo-root>/packages/payload/src/exports/i18n/[your-new-language].ts
