Hi Peter, I think the original mail was talking about translating the strings for darktable itself, not dtsocs, which is the user manual. The strings for darktable itself do not use weblate, while the user manual does.
For the user manual, you will not find every string of text in the application, since we are telling people how to use it. I find flatpak to be an easy way to build the master branch of the darktable application. As for the technicality of the material, just do the best you can. The cool thing about weblate is that it makes it easy for multiple people to contribute, so perhaps someone else can help out as well. Hope that helps. -m On April 22, 2021 2:13:10 AM PDT, Peter Schlaufer <pe...@schlaufer.ch> wrote: >Hello > >After having translated 30% of the dtdocs into german I am now a bit >confused, because I started the translation-work in Weblate, as per the >Mail from Mica Semrick: > >The new documentation written in markdown is ready to be translated. >We're using Weblate to manage the translation. > >You can find the dtdocs project here: >https://weblate.pixls.us/projects/darktable/dtdocs/ ><https://weblate.pixls.us/projects/darktable/dtdocs/> > >Please let me know if you have any questions. > >-m > >I am not sure, what these mails are about on Poedit and Flatpak. > >As mentioned above I have translated +/- 30%.
