Hi @waydabber - Leaving a comment here so that I could help you in Hindi Localization. Thanks!

Hi @hkunamtata

Here is the Hindi xcloc file:

hi.xcloc.zip

Simply download XCode for free, open the file and fill out the missing localizations. You can check any of the other localizations from the repository as a reference to get some ideas.

Here are some info: waydabber/BetterDisplay#2165

You can also use various other free apps that can help with localiations. If you use ChatGPT or other LLMs, make sure you double-check the translations and maintain consistency for technical terms.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask! :)

Thanks for volunteering!

Also, if you want to share your progress, just attach the zip file here. I can provide you with builds so you can see how your translation looks like in the app.

@waydabber Acknowledged - Thank You. I'll keep you posted.

[waydabber]

Thank you!

Hi @waydabber,

Here's the progress I've made so far: hi.xcloc.zip

I created a fork of (https://github.com/waydabber/BetterDisplay-localization) but didn't find Hindi in the list of languages yet - Perhaps because it will need to be set up (by you?) for the first time.

Let me know if that's a better way to move forward and I'll keep creating Pull Requests as I make progress? Thank You.

[waydabber]

Hi @hkunamtata - thank you! Yes, I will import this progress into the app, do a build and localization export and then update this repo with Hindi. After that you can simply do pull requests as well instead of attaching the zip file here.

[waydabber]

Hindi is now added to the repo. You can fork it and work on that, or just continue providing a zip file, whichever you prefer!

[waydabber]

Hi @hkunamtata - are you making progress? Let me know if you need any help! :)

[hkunamtata]

Hi @waydabber - Sorry work has been crazy EOY, I've blocked off some time next week to make a big push for the localization - I'll keep you posted. Happy Holidays :)

[waydabber]

Ok, no problem, just wanted to know whether this is still happening. Thanks and Happy Holidays! :)

[waydabber]

Hi @hkunamtata - any updates? :)

[hkunamtata]

Hi @waydabber - I'm guilty of not making progress on this in the past - I just worked on it for a little less than an hour, and made a 'commit to main' request from Github Desktop - I'm unclear if it showed up as a pull request or not? Could you confirm when you get a chance? Thank You.

Moving forward I'd like to keep making constant progress on this, I'll set reminders for myself. Thanks.
