Toward the broader globalization of Open Source
summary
Community converts the Turing Way handbook into multiple languages using a documented, crowdsourced workflow that starts with localization not as an afterthought but from the book dash onward. The process uses Crowdin → GitHub PRs, enforces language-specific guidelines written in target languages, and shares a translation memory + glossary to keep terms consistent. The project already hosts 107 subchapters, draws over 275 contributors, automates deployments, runs weekly co‑working sessions, and reports widespread reuse of illustrations.
