Introduction

The text within Cerb’s interface can be translated into any language.

Translations are shared as .xml files in the TMX¹ format.

Language packs use the following naming convention:

cerb_lang_<language>_<country>.xml

The <language> and <country> codes use ISO 639² and ISO 3166³ respectively.

For instance:

• de_DE: German (Germany)
• en_US: English (American)
• en_GB: English (British)
• es_ES: Spanish (Spain)
• es_MX: Spanish (Mexico)
• it_IT: Italian (Italy)

Workers and contacts can each configure their own preferred language.
