International Language Support

[Chenglong-MS]

In the next release, we are making Data Formulator with different language support.

We just get started with English and Chinese. We plan to add a few more, you are welcome to comment about what ones would it be. We'll do it with AI, but once it's done would appreciate helps to check quality and have improvements.

H, I am interested in helping with internationalization. I am a native Greek speaker.

Christoforos Kapsalis (@C-Kapsalis) Lovely, we are currently using i18n. It shouldn't be too hard to spin up an agent to work on translation, but some inspection / checking the text and testing would be super helpful after that.

You can point the coding agent this this translation guide https://github.com/microsoft/data-formulator/blob/dev/src/i18n/TRANSLATION_GUIDE.md and it should be able to get started.

That is great! I am also very interested in helping with documenting the project, as I am transitioning from analytics engineering to technical writing.

Sounds amazing! We currently don't have lots of human facing documents (most stuff are designed for agents), so if we can work together some user-facing instructions, guidances and examples, it would make a big difference.

Hi, I'd like to work on adding Hindi translations for this.
