[!Important] If the latest version of Translucent Flyouts¹ doesn't work well or doesn't work at all with the latest version of Translucent Flyouts Config, make sure to create an issue or discussion and talk about it there. Both Translucent Flyouts¹ and Translucent Flyouts Config are developed under a FOSS license, and any incompatibility might be due to communication gap and difference in time zones between the two developers, and the fact that this software is dependent on Translucent Flyouts¹ and not the other way around. Rest assured, I strive to make this software compatible with the latest version of Translucent Flyouts as soon as possible if that is ever not the case for future releases.

Contribution

Translation

You can contribute to the language of your choice that you are confident in contributing to for this project. You may wanna look at this translation file before proceeding to contribute.

For first time contributors use the following Steps:

Fork the Repository.
Create a file in the Translations directory using the name convention LanguageCode-CountryCode.json, all in lowercase.
Copy everything from hi-in.json and paste it into you new file.
Remove Hindi translations for each corresponding English ones and replace with translation for your respective language.

[!Important] There's a translations where a line ends with <code> and another that starts with </code>, pay close attention and keep it that way in you translation as well, else it will break the code. Here are the lines:

"Uses the corresponding value in the global tab as the <code>"

"</code> value."

If you wanna go a few steps further and edit python, you might as well follow these:

Open Data/enum.py and add an additional value to the class Languages.
Open Data/paths.py and under class Translations add the path to you translation path in the exact way as mentioned there for the previously mentioned language(s).
Open Data/translations.py and under class TranslationModel, under method _fetch(), find a dictionary translationPath and add another pair in the format LanguageEnum:LanguageJSONPathVariable
Open main.py and under method __init__ you will find a line which says self.language with a list of language names in their own languages. Add one for the one you are adding.

[!Note] If you just wanna do the first part, I'll accept PR for the same as well and do the 2nd part myself. But the 2nd part would be appreciated.
