## Changes
- Replace stale QUEUE_TYPE env var (superSimpleQueue/lessSimpleQueue) with QUEUE_MODE (primary/worker) to match server/src/config/envValidation.ts
- Mark ORIGIN, TOKEN_TTL and LOG_LEVEL as optional with their defaults; note that only CLIENT_HOST, JWT_SECRET and DB_CONNECTION_STRING are strictly required
- Note that CLIENT_HOST must be a full URL (enforced by env validation)
- Remove Redis port 6379 from the port-conflict troubleshooting list; the server has no Redis dependency
- Point CLAUDE.md at CONTRIBUTING.md as the setup source of truth
## Why
A contributor followed the setup docs and hit references to files and env vars that no longer exist after the repo reorg. This brings the contributor docs in line with the actual dev workflow.
## Changes
- Add `client/src/locales/it.json` — Italian translation of all 874 UI
keys, structure mirrors `en.json` exactly. Placeholders (`{{value}}`,
etc.) and inline tag tokens (`<settingsLink>`, `<highlight>`, ...)
are preserved. Product/brand names, technical abbreviations, and
placeholder-style examples (e.g. `you@example.com`) are kept in
English. 116 leaves are intentionally kept verbatim in English
(brand names, protocol names, sample values, port numbers, regex).
- Register `it: "Italiano"` in `LanguageSelector`'s `languageNames`
map so the dropdown shows the localised name; the selector already
picks up any locale present in the i18n resources.
- Fill in the two "How do I..." sections that CONTRIBUTING.md's table
of contents already links to but did not have bodies:
- "Improve the documentation?" — short guidance on doc PRs and
keeping README translations in sync.
- "Help with translations?" — describes the current per-language
JSON workflow (source of truth: `en.json`; improve an existing
language by editing its JSON; add a new one by adding a JSON file
and registering the display name in `LanguageSelector`). Notes
that the older PoEditor sync workflow is no longer authoritative.
## Benefits
- Italian speakers can now use Checkmate in Italian.
- Contributors who follow the "Help with translations?" link from
the CONTRIBUTING TOC land on real, current guidance instead of a
broken anchor.
- Translation quality can be improved incrementally by anyone
editing `it.json` directly; no external tooling required.
CONTRIBUTING.md: surface format-check + build in code guidelines
and the PR checklist so contributors run the same verifications
the project enforces locally.
CLAUDE.md: correct stale test framework reference (Mocha+Chai+Sinon
-> Jest) and update the test file glob to server/test/**/*.test.ts.
This is a very basic version. It will probably be in a better shape after our first MVP where we have a working version together with an installation/usage documentation as well.
