# How to add a language to LibreChat
|
||
|
||
## Minimum Requirements:
|
||
|
||
1. Good knowledge of the language (some terms may undergo significant changes during translation)
|
||
2. An editor, which can be Notepad or (**recommended**: [VSCode](https://code.visualstudio.com/download))
|
||
|
||
## Language translation
|
||
|
||
|
||
1. Fork the LibreChat repository and download it using git clone https://github.com/danny-avila/LibreChat
|
||
2. Navigate to the "client\src\localization" folder and open the "Translation.tsx" file
|
||
3. At the beginning of the code, add your language below all the others in this format:
|
||
|
||
`import Language-name from './languages/** ';`
|
||
|
||
For example, let's take English as an example:
|
||
|
||
Note: Replace "LanguageName" with the name of your language (capitalized) and "**" with the ISO 3166 Alpha-2 code of your country (the initial of the nation).
|
||
If you don't know the ISO 3166 code for your language, check it [here](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ISO_3166_country_codes) and also use it with an initial capital)
|
||
|
||
4. Further down in the code, add the following
|
||
|
||
`if (langCode === '**') return Language-name;`
|
||
|
||
Replace "**" with the ISO 3166 Alpha-2 code of your language (in lowercase). Here's an example: `if (langCode === 'en') return English;`)
|
||
|
||
7.Go into the "languages" folder and create a file named as follows: **.tsx
|
||
|
||
For example: En.tsx
|
||
|
||
9. Copy all the content from En.tsx into your file and modify it as follows:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
// your-language-name phrases
|
||
|
||
export default {
|
||
com_ui_examples: 'Examples',
|
||
// Add more translations here
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Rename only the part after the colon ":" to the corresponding translation in your language. For example:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
// my-language phrases
|
||
|
||
export default {
|
||
com_ui_examples: 'WORD_THAT_I_TRANSLATE_IN_TO_MY_LANGUAGE',
|
||
// Add more translations here
|
||
};
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
⚠️DO NOT CHANGE com_... ⚠️
|
||
|
||
10. To add your language to the menu, open the file "client\src\components\Nav\SettingsTabs\General.tsx" and add your language to the "LangSelector" variable in the following way:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
export const LangSelector = ({
|
||
//other code
|
||
<option value="en">{localize(lang, 'com_nav_lang_english')}</option>
|
||
//other languages...
|
||
<option value="**">{localize(lang, 'com_nav_lang_your-language-name')}</option>
|
||
</select>
|
||
</div>
|
||
);
|
||
};
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
where ** is the ISO 3166 Alpha-2 code and "com_nav_lang_your-language-name" stands for the name in your language (for example com_nav_lang_english or com_nav_lang_italian)
|
||
The only line of code to add is:
|
||
|
||
`<option value="**">{localize(lang, 'com_nav_lang_your-language-name')}</option>`
|
||
|
||
11. Commit your changes using git add *, git commit -m "Language translation: your-language translation" and git push.
|
||
12. Open your repository in a browser and click on "Contribute"
|
||
|
||

|
||
|
||
14. Answer all the questions, and in the "Type of Change" section, add `- [x] Translation support`
|
||
15. Create a pull request 🎉
