  • English and Spanish translations initially
  • Language detection and switching
  • RTL language support consideration
  • Accessible language selection

Implementation Hints:

  • Use react-i18next library
  • Extract all text strings to translation files
  • Implement language switcher component
  • Consider date/number formatting

Contributor guide

Research direction
Start by studying react i18next documentation. Then identify all user facing text in the codebase, extract them into translation JSON files for English and Spanish. Implement a language switcher component and use the useTranslation hook to replace hardcoded strings. Finally, test with both languages and ensure RTL support is considered.
