=================
This is the homepage for the `BeeWare project`_.
It is a `Lektor`_-based site.
If you want to contribute a modification, you can fork this repository and
submit a pull request. However, **do not fork the master branch** - fork the
`lektor branch`_ and make changes there instead.
.. _lektor branch: https://github.com/beeware/beeware.github.io/tree/lektor
If you want to test out a change before you submit it, download and install
`Lektor`_ (note: currently it's better to use Lektor with Python 2.7):
$ pip install lektor
Then from the root directory of the checkout, run:
$ lektor server
.. _Lektor: https://getlektor.com
This will `start a webserver`_ that will autoreload whenever you make a change
to site content.
.. _start a webserver: http://127.0.0.1:5000

Translating
-----------
Want to make BeeWare more accessible to non-English-speakers? Help translate the site! Steps are as follows:
1. Add language specification to `BeeWare.lektorproject <https://github.com/beeware/beeware.github.io/blob/lektor/BeeWare.lektorproject>`_.
Fill out the name of the language, its url prefix, and the locale. Make sure you use the correct `ISO 639-1 <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ISO_639-1_codes>`_ locale code - for many countries, it's not the same as
the national TLD. For example, the ISO 639-1 Danish locale is 'da', but Denmark uses the '.dk' TLD.
2. Add an entry for your language to the `Atom configuration <https://github.com/beeware/beeware.github.io/blob/lektor/configs/atom.ini>`_.
3. Add your first translation, by translating the names for the menus at the top of each page. Edit `the menus translation file <https://github.com/beeware/beeware.github.io/blob/lektor/databags/menu.ini>`_, adding a block for your language.
4. Start adding translations for content pages ont he site. Translated files are at the same directory level as the primary English files, but have a language suffix. For example, Arabic's locale is 'ar', so you would add `contents+ar.lr` wherever the original file name is `contents.lr`
A great place to start translating is the `contributing section <beeware.github.io/content/contributing>`_.
