For ar, ca, cs, fi, th, uk, vi the AI-generated translation quality
is hardest for me to vouch for. Added a clear "machine-translated
draft — native-speaker PRs welcome" notice at the top of each so
the community can fix them. The note appears below the language
selector for visibility.
## Anchor fix
GitHub auto-generates anchor IDs from the rendered heading text, so
the English TOC links (#users-guide, #installation, etc.) in the
translated READMEs were broken — the matching anchor IDs only existed
in the English README. Added hidden <a id="..."></a> markers before
each section heading in all 17 READMEs (root + 16 translations) so
the TOC works in every language.
## Spanish refresh
The existing Spanish README was a human translation of an older
revision of the project README — it carried its own Traducciones and
Patrocinadores sections, an outdated demo URL, and a different
feature list. Rewrote it from the current English README structure
while keeping a fluent Spanish tone.
Mirrors the Graphify pattern: a centered flag + native-language link
bar at the top of every README points to the rest. All translated
files live in docs/translations/ so the repo root stays clean.
## Coverage
- Added 15 new translations: ar, ca, cs, de, fi, fr, ja, pt-BR, ru,
th, tr, uk, vi, zh-CN, zh-TW
- Moved README.es.md from the repo root to docs/translations/
- Updated the root README to include the language selector
The 17 languages here match the locales the Checkmate UI already
ships translations for, so README parity is consistent with what a
user sees inside the app.
## Quality note
Translations were drafted as a starting point and may need
native-speaker review for tone and idiom — especially Arabic, Thai,
the two Chinese variants, Japanese, and Vietnamese. Technical terms
(Docker, MongoDB, Redis, Webhook, etc.), URLs, contributor names,
and badge URLs are intentionally left as-is.
The custom Checkbox used Lucide Square/SquareCheck for unchecked/checked
states but had no indeterminateIcon, so MUI fell back to its default 24px
Material icon. This caused a visible size mismatch and row height jitter
in the bulk-select header of monitor tables.
Add SquareMinus from lucide-react at the same size (16px) and strokeWidth
(1.5) as the existing icons, and extend the checked color rule to also
cover the indeterminate state.
