What would you like to see?

Description

I'd like to respectfully suggest adding multi-language support for the main screen that users first encounter when launching the application. As this screen creates the first impression for users, enhancing it with localization could potentially improve user experience for non-English speakers.

Suggestion

After reviewing the codebase, I believe it might be beneficial to consider implementing localization for:

  • The Checklist component
  • QuickLinks section

These components appear to have relatively stable UI designs, which could make them suitable candidates for localization with manageable maintenance overhead.

Considerations

For components that receive frequent updates such as:

  • "Explore more features" section
  • "Updates & announcements" section

It might be more practical to maintain these in English only, as the translation maintenance effort could potentially outweigh the benefits.

Next Steps

If the maintainers find this suggestion valuable, I would be happy to contribute by working on a prototype implementation and submitting a Pull Request for consideration.

Thank you for reviewing this suggestion. I appreciate your feedback and guidance on whether this aligns with the project's direction.

"Updates & announcements" section

We can have at least the title be in English, but the articles themselves may remain in English (at least the card in the app) as the external link in browser will have its own language preference the user can use.

The reason translation was no done in the first merge of the feature is we often follow up features with translations once we know the UI is table and passed QA from design
