Translate to Spanish

[natebass]

I think it would be a good idea for the app to translate to Spanish, especially in the "Do I Qualify?" section.

@Nate-Bass That's a really great idea. Maybe we can just use the Google translate plugin for right now?

Try duolingo for free open source translation.

@kaniasty Looks like a cool project, thanks for the tip.

I uploaded this document to Duolingo last week. Link.

@jboiser thanks! I think we're gonna end up going with Google translate though, mostly so we can support the most languages with the least effort. It will be really helpful to have that duolingo page to evaluate how close the Google translate plugin gets to the real thing.

Hello,
I can translate this to Spanish. Can someone send me the exact text?

Hi @xeniaThunder thank you for your interest in wicit and sorry for the delay in replying. @jboiser started a duolingo page (see the above comments) for translating the site. Unfortunately, I haven't had much time to work on WICit lately, so I can't make any promises about when your work would make it into the app, but if you or maybe someone else on this thread can/is-willing-to implement any kind of English/Spanish language switch using the translation, I'd be happy to merge it in and deploy it. Sorry again for the delay in getting back to you!
