Hello
FSFE attempts to make 'Lernen wie die Profis' multilingual. Max already provided a pull request. Technically it seems to be quite easy. Is there anybody at FSFE-ZH who would like to volunteer? Maybe Alex?
Best regards Ralf

Hi Fani, hi Ralf,
I made a first proposal on turning this site into multi-language:
https://git.fsfe.org/fsfe-zh/lernenwiedieprofis.ch/pulls/1
It's very simple, no language switcher yet (as this would involve also changing the submoduled theme), and only a few pages. But it works surprisingly well.
Let's discuss further in the issue if you want. I take out the System Hackers as this is not really their area of tasks.
Best, Max

Hello team,
we have come to the conclusion that it is technically challenging to include translations in a campaing website made by a local group [1]. Neiter I nor the developer of the webste, Ralf, can do it. Before quitting the idea, I am sharing this information with you. I quote Ralf:
Providing translations isn't that easy for two reasons:
- The website is based on static website generator Hugo:
https://gohugo.io/%C2%A0https://gohugo.io/, which is fine for performance, privacy and security reasons. I've utilized the 'Terrassa' theme (https://themes.gohugo.io/themes/hugo-terrassa-theme/%C2%A0 https://themes.gohugo.io/themes/hugo-terrassa-theme/), that is not prepared for internationalization. I'm sure, the template could be adapted for multi-language support, but that is beyond my skills.
- The website is available at https://git.fsfe.org/fsfe-zh
https://git.fsfe.org/fsfe-zh, so anyone could adapt it for multi-language support and provide translations. It is just a question of skills and resource availability (as always :).
Would you be interested to help? Or, do you have any counter suggestions? Context: the FSFE Zurich local group created an initiative [1] aiming to bring Free Software in Education. This is the website we could ask our translators team to translate. FSFE Zurich received an award for this activity. [2]
Thanks for the advice and help.
Gretings,
Fani
