Working on Translations
Choose the Right Language
The application always loads a regional locale, e.g. for BK-DE it will use translations from German in Germany, and not any other German variants. Therefore, when making translation changes, make sure to always use the appropriate regional language.
When working across multiple languages, e.g. Spanish (Spain) + Spanish (Portugal), using Lokalise translation editor’s Multilingual View is recommended.
Editor Environment
Lokalise has a full-fledged translations editor, and covering how it works is out of the scope of this document.
To learn more about specifics on using the translations editor, please head to https://docs.lokalise.com/en/articles/2967175-onboarding-guide-for-translators.
Syncronization
Once translations have been edited and saved via the Lokalise editor, they will make their way to the application automatically.
String updates are synchronized twice per day, at 10:00 and 22:00 UTC respectively. After the updates have been published, an application restart or website refresh is required to get the up-to-date contents. String updates are only propagated to the latest application version.
