Hi,
I am Sarthak Gupta, a first year undergraduate from Birla Institute of
Technology, Ranchi, India. I am looking forward to participate in GSoc17
with the organisation. I am good at several languages like HTML, CSS,
JavaScript and C. I have a basic knowledge of Java.
While going through the ideas page, I found that the project "Translation
in context" http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/GoogleSummerOfCode/#
HTranslationincontext
would be interesting for me to work on.
This is what I understood:
So, the X-wiki provides a 'translation macro' which is of course used to
translate content. So, as far as I think, this translation macro will be
used in a more better way to translate the content on the page. As given we
will be able to select and translate any given content on the webpage.
Using HTML5 renderer, I will be able to find the translation macro(how to
do that is my pain I guess :P). Then as given in examples (like
pantoon.mozilla.org), I should be able to incorporate it into the webpage.
Please correct me if something's wrong.
Also some guidance on the line "The idea is also
to make easy to contribute
to http://l10n.xwiki.org from your local wiki by sending your corrections
to it." is required.
http://l10n.xwiki.org is where we actually store reference
translations and where translator can contribute right now. The idea
would be to translate directly in the wiki and then (automatically or
not) send the translations from your XWiki instance to l10n.xwiki.org
(if you have an account). You could see this as a commit/push.
