 The OpenRGB project welcomes contributions from the community.  The project would not support the number of devices it does today without the amazing contributions from community developers.  If you want to add a new device, fix a bug, or add a feature, feel free to open a merge request on the OpenRGB GitLab (https://gitlab.com/CalcProgrammer1/OpenRGB).
 
+## Translating
+
+Translation files are located in [`OpenRGB/qt/i18n/`](https://gitlab.com/CalcProgrammer1/OpenRGB/-/tree/master/qt/i18n), where languages are formatted using ISO 639-1 format: `OpenRGB_xx_XX.ts` — `xx_XX` representing the language code.
+In order to translate a file, you need to [fork](https://gitlab.com/CalcProgrammer1/OpenRGB/-/forks/new) the project, create a new file for your language (or edit an exisiting one), commit, push, and create a merge request.
