In plain words
PyTongue is a Python translation tool that allows developers to write code in non-English languages instead of English. Designed for teaching programming to people who don't speak English, it provides basic Python language translations ready for offline use and allows users to add custom languages. The tool currently supports standard library functions only, functioning as a simple transliteration program that can be customized by editing example files.

This little piece of code lets you write python code in any language you deem fit. This is meant as a tool to teach people programming without having to teach them English first. The basic python language is translated and ready for offline use. You can add your own languages. Non standard libraries are not yet supported. This is a simple transliteration program. The idea is as follows. If you were to write a useless example in Hindi it might be something like this. To generate a different example edit the examples/example.py file. If the translation provided by Google feels wrong there is nothing to worry about. Since the translation is actually implemented using a dictionary, all you have…from thesage21.github.io

- ICI coded my own JSON translation tool to easily localize my side project2024 · quicklang.app · ▲43
Hi HN, I’m Joan, the developer of Quicklang. I made this app to easily translate and keep in sync all my localization JSON files for my side projects. While searching online for a similar tool, I only found enterprise solutions that do not allow direct editing of JSON files. I used to use ChatGPT to translate the JSON translation file changes before coding Quicklang. However, I realized that ChatGPT only allows you to input short content for translation into another language (even if you provide a .json file), and each time I had to request translations for one language at a time. So, I…
