Boost your developer site with localisation

" summary

English-only developer sites miss a lot: 1.05 billion English web users versus 0.1 billion Japanese, so localized content drives reach. The site uses a mixed workflow of Watson Translator machine translation plus human review, CMS sync and GitHub-hosted code patterns that include README.ja.md for Japanese instructions. Local originals make up about 30% local content with a recommended 70/30 balance of local to global material, and local advocate programs and platform links ensure contributors can update docs and code.
