🌍 Translations

Rhythm uses Weblate for crowd-sourced translations. This is the only supported way to contribute translations.

How to translate:

  1. Visit hosted.weblate.org/engage/rhythm/
  2. Create a free Weblate account
  3. Select your language and start translating the Strings component

⚠️ Do not open pull requests that modify app/src/main/res/values-*/strings.xml files directly. Weblate manages these files and syncs them back to the repository automatically via its own PRs. Manual edits will conflict with and be overwritten by Weblate.
