# How to help translate Zulip Desktop
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
These are *generated* files (*) that contain translations of the strings in
 | 
			
		||||
the app.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
You can help translate Zulip Desktop into your language!  We do our
 | 
			
		||||
translations in Transifex, which is a nice web app for collaborating on
 | 
			
		||||
translations; a maintainer then syncs those translations into this repo.
 | 
			
		||||
To help out, [join the Zulip project on
 | 
			
		||||
Transifex](https://www.transifex.com/zulip/zulip/) and enter translations
 | 
			
		||||
there.  More details in the [Zulip contributor docs](https://zulip.readthedocs.io/en/latest/translating/translating.html#translators-workflow).
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
Within that Transifex project, if you'd like to focus on Zulip Desktop, look
 | 
			
		||||
at `desktop.json`.  The other resources there are for the Zulip web/mobile
 | 
			
		||||
app, where translations are also very welcome.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
(*) One file is an exception: `en.json` is manually maintained as a
 | 
			
		||||
list of (English) messages in the source code, and is used when we upload to
 | 
			
		||||
Transifex a list of strings to be translated.  It doesn't contain any
 | 
			
		||||
translations.
