We just started a new attempt translating major parts of the UI. Just wondering if someone wants to support this - translating, reviewing, commenting - anyone is welcome.  
Discussion will be held on the #i18n-de Slack channel.

Thanks  
Joerg

Great work Joerg.

Sadly my German doesn't go much beyond ordering the beers so not sure I'd be of any help. 🍻

There are several native Germans hanging around here (I'm just a Swedish child born in Sweden, by two German parents, so I'm not the best reviewer...even if I understand most 😉 )  
Let's see how well they now will be tuning in, come on guys & girls !!!!

Hello together,

the Pull Request "[rework of DE translation by heikokue · Pull Request #2806 · node-red/node-red · GitHub](https://github.com/node-red/node-red/pull/2806)" has a 1st draft of the changes in the Node-RED editor (main GUI) and it's JSONata descriptions. The translations of the runtime and the nodes are ongoing.  
There you can see the changes wether directly in the locales-files, but with no exact knowledge where and how they are visible in Node-RED.  
Or you can replace the locales files directly in your given Node-RED installation by copying the locales folders:

**editor-client:**  
from /packages/node\_modules/@node-red/editor-client/locales  
to /usr/lib/node\_modules/node-red/node\_modules/@node-red/editor-client/locales (RasPi)  
or to C:\Users\\<user\>\AppData\Roaming\npm\node\_modules\node-red\node\_modules@node-red\editor-client\locales (Windows)

**nodes:**  
from /packages/node\_modules/@node-red/nodes/locales  
to /usr/lib/node\_modules/node-red/node\_modules/@node-red/nodes/locales (RasPi)  
or to  
C:\Users\\<user\>\AppData\Roaming\npm\node\_modules\node-red\node\_modules@node-red\nodes\locales (Windows)

**runtime:**  
from /packages/node\_modules/@node-red/runtime/locales  
to /usr/lib/node\_modules/node-red/node\_modules/@node-red/runtime/locales (RasPi)  
or to C:\Users\\<user\>\AppData\Roaming\npm\node\_modules\node-red\node\_modules@node-red\runtime\locales (Windows)

This is the GitHub website with the development branch: [GitHub - heikokue/node-red at i18n-de/dev](https://github.com/heikokue/node-red/tree/i18n-de/dev)  
And this is the Git-link to clone it locally: [https://github.com/heikokue/node-red.git](https://github.com/heikokue/node-red.git)  
You need Git installed: [https://git-scm.com/](https://git-scm.com/)  
Please leave your comments in the PR (Pull Request above).

Another (deveoper-)tool to review the translations is [GitHub - node-red/i18n-viewer](https://github.com/node-red/i18n-viewer).

We are very grateful for any feedback and any help!

Hello together, I just finished and pushed my rework of the german translation of the core (editor, runtime, jsonata and the core-nodes). Now it's on you to review it, please!  
The translation is on the level of NR-version 1.2.9. Later/ongoing developments (e.g. MQTT5) are not yet translated. I like to wait till the next release.  
I hope, you enjoy it. And if not, please enter an issue at [GitHub - heikokue/node-red: Low-code programming for event-driven applications](https://github.com/heikokue/node-red)
