phpbbdocs-languages

Canonical PO translation catalogs for phpbbdocs-hugo's gettext-based translation pipeline. This repository holds only translation data — the English source, build tooling, and generated Hugo site all live in phpbbdocs-hugo; see that project's translations.sh and docs/phpbb-gettext-translation-plan.md for the full workflow.

Layout

<lang>/
├── language.toml        # code, name, native_name, locale, status
├── documentation/
│   └── <chapter>.po      # one catalog per end-user chapter
└── development/
    └── <docname>.po       # one catalog per dev-docs page, mirroring the upstream RST tree
metadata/
└── source.json           # per-language recorded upstream source revision
terminology/
└── <lang>/               # terminology audits, human-review notes, supplementary glossaries

Generated POT templates and reconstructed output are never committed here — see phpbbdocs-hugo's translation.conf/.gitignore for where those live as build artifacts.

Terminology

terminology/ holds each language's translation-quality writeups: a terminology audit against phpBB's real UI strings, human-review notes for a native speaker, and a supplementary glossary for unconfirmed terms. See terminology/README.md for the index, and phpbbdocs-hugo's docs/translation-process-prompt.md for the audit process that produces this content.

Contributing

Contributions are welcome!

• Bug reports: Open an issue.
• Everything else (questions, feature requests, ideas, general discussion): open an issue in phpbbdocs-hugo instead — this repository is data-only and doesn't run its own discussion space.
• Pull requests updating a .po catalog are welcome; run ./translations.sh check <lang> in phpbbdocs-hugo before submitting.
