summary

Hands-on build of a multilingual Wagtail site: a starter project is created (local or Gitpod), Wagtail plus wagtail-localize is installed, English and French locales are added, and a blog with StreamField, images and embeds is built and published. Translation options include PO export, machine translators (demo uses a dummy translator) and human workflows; syncing pushes content updates to translations. A notable hiccup: converting a RichText body to StreamField triggers a streamfield migration conflict that requires rolling back or recreating the dev DB, but the site and localization workflow end up working.
