I'd be great to provide a way for JiM to be translatable.
I don't know how to code that, but I'd be happy to provide a French translation when it's done.

  • Integrate gettext
  • Mark translatable strings
  • Extract messages catalog template
  • Add scripts to manage message files
  • Add reference translation (German)
  • Update meson build setup to build and install *.mo files
  • Add instructions on adding / updating a translation somewhere (new contributing guide, see Write a contributing guide #118)
  • Add global setting for language to use Add preferences setting for language #121

Sure but this will require changes to the build system, better to wait for the switch to Meson (work in progress in pull request #29)

OK, thanks for the answer, I'll wait then.
Feel free to ping me if needed.

It'll also require small (though not compliecated) changes in many places in the GTK code.

I18N is something that's been on my internal wish / to do list already.

Pinging as a friendly reminder here.
Has the switch to meson progressed?

I'm sorry to say, no. I can't speak for the other developers, but as for myself, I currently need to be concentrating on the business side of life, and I'm afraid I probably won't be able to work on jack-mixer before the next year.
