Volunteer Wanted

Hey, guys! We are going to provide English documentation.

But we are short of staff :-( So, we want some volunteers to help us to translate antd-mobile's documentation into English. Every translation task needs a translator and a reviewer. Both of them are expected that they had used the component(Menu Drawer etc...) in real world.

Translator

A translator should be familiar with both Chinese and English.

If you want to be a volunteer translator, just comment this issue. For example, "I want to be the translator of button and modal ....". And then, we will update this issue(e.g. button (translator: @benjycui, reviewer: @waywardmonkeys )), and ping you.

Contributing:

1. Fork ant-design-mobile and git clone
2. Create a branch starting at master and name it as translation-button
3. npm install && npm start, see: Development
4. Find Markdown files under components/xxx(xxx is the component which you need to translate), index.md and demo/*.md use different format, see: Internationalization of Ant Design website ant-design#1423
5. Just translate it, and you had better read our advice first.
6. Create a pull request to ant-design-mobile:master when your translation is done, and ping your reviewer.
7. PR will be merged, if your reviewer think it is OK.

See:

• https://github.com/ant-design/ant-design/tree/master/components/button
• https://github.com/ant-design/ant-design/blob/master/components/button/demo/basic.md

Reviewer

A reviewer should be a native English speaker.

If you want to be a volunteer reviewer, just comment this issue. For example, "I want to be the reviewer of button and alert...". And then, we will update this issue(e.g. button (translator: @benjycui, reviewer: @waywardmonkeys )), and ping you.

After your corresponding translator finish his/her work, you should review and provide some advice.

Example: ant-design/ant-design#1932

Update by @paranoidjk

How to ?

git clone git@github.com:ant-design/ant-design-mobile.git
cd antd-mobile
npm install
npm start

Then open http://127.0.0.1:8001 on your favorite browser, you will see that the default language of the site had been changed to English.

• but the homepage will auto detect your system language
• and still you can switch to Chinese by click the button on the upper right corner of page

Tasks

1. all files which extension name is .en-US.md should be translate to English.

   include components/{foo}/index.md, and /doc/react/{bar}.md , and wiki page
   right now the content of foo.en-US.md is just a copy of it's Chinese version foo.zh-CN.md

2. all components/{foo}/demo/{bar}.md should change it's title syntax.

   see Flex or CheckboxItem as a example

[fr11dom]

[lixiaoyang1992]

I want to be the translator of modal.

[yesmeck]

有些公共的词是不是约定下，比如 prop 在 antd 文档里叫"属性"， 这里叫"成员"。

[paranoidjk]

@yesmeck props --> 属性， follow the antd convention
