Hi, Currently there is no localization framework being used anywhere in Prometheus, and the only language available is English (which is hardcoded everywhere).
It's a possibility in the future, but we need to answer the following questions for it: * Are we ok with the extra maintenance burden? IMO at least it would have to be done in a way that a "normal" change only needs to touch the English texts, and then any translated versions are optional (e.g. display English by default, if no up-to-date translation is available) and can be done by other contributors afterwards. Otherwise it would block too much change. Still, it would slow development as now there's always an indirection between a text and the place where it's used. Might be worth it though, but I wouldn't want to decide that by myself. * Which framework would we use for that (e.g. https://github.com/i18next/react-i18next)? * Do we only translate the web UI, or also anything else that's user-visible in the binary? * Who contributes translations, and how do we verify that they are ok enough if we don't speak those languages ourselves?
