Hello, fellow polyglots! Are you tired of building documentation sites that only cater to one language? Do you want to create a website that can speak multiple tongues and impress your friends? Well, you've come to the right place!

Introducing the Multilingual Documentation Template with Astro - the ultimate solution for all your language-related woes! With this template, you can now create documentation in not one, not two, but multiple languages! That's right, folks - you can now make your website speak in French, Spanish, Mandarin, and even Elvish.

But wait, there's more! This template is built using Astro, a static site builder that allows you to create blazing-fast websites that will leave your competitors in the dust. Plus, it comes pre-configured with support for multiple languages, so you don't have to waste time fiddling around with complicated configurations.

So what are you waiting for? Start building your multilingual documentation website today and show the world that one language is just not enough!

Installation

To get started with PolyDocs, follow these simple steps:

1. Clone the repository: git clone https://github.com/letsmoe/polydocs.git
2. Navigate to the project directory: cd your-repo
3. Install dependencies: pnpm install

That's it! You're now ready to start building your docs.

Running the Development Server

To run the development server and see your changes in real-time, use the following command:

pnpm run dev

This will start the development server and open the site in your default browser. You can now make changes to your site and see them update in real-time.

Configuration

To get started with this template, you'll need to set a few configuration options in the astro.i18n.config.ts file. In this file, you can specify the languages you want to support, along with any other settings you want to customize.

For example, to add support for French and Spanish, you can add the following lines to the astro.i18n.config.ts file:

export default {
	defaultLangCode: "en",
	supportedLangCodes: ["fr", "es"],
	translations: {
		en: (await import("./i18n/en/config.json")).default,
		fr: (await import("./i18n/fr/config.json")).default,
		es: (await import("./i18n/es/config.json")).default
	}
}

In addition to configuring languages, you can also customize settings such as the site title, navigation, and styles. For more information on available configuration options, clone the repo and view the full documentation right from there 😉.

Launching your Site

Once you've configured your site, you can launch it using pnpm run build or npm run build or yarn build. This command will build your site and output the files to the dist directory. You can then deploy these files to your hosting provider of choice.

pnpm run build
npm run build
yarn build

That's it! Your multilingual documentation is now ready to go. Users can easily switch between languages using the language switcher in the navigation, providing a seamless experience for users around the world.
