Quick add magic translations

Feature Discussion

Hi!

Just starting out using this great piece of software, because I want to get away from closed source (migrating from Todoist). Self hosting using docker compose. Working great so far, thanks for all the great work on this.

The feature I miss most is the quick add magic not working in Dutch, even if the language setting is changed to (in my case) Dutch. Because of my history in Todoist I’m used to just jotting notes in my own language and it just working. I’m not sure I can teach myself to swap languages in the middle of a note :wink:

I would even like to contribute to translating the algorithms to accommodate quick add magic in Dutch if that is possible.

Thanks for your considerations!

Hey thanks for your interest!

Translating the algorithm isn’t as easy as translating the rest of the app, since there might be a few small edge cases in each language which might need special handling.

That being said it’s very much possible, just not a priority right now.

Thanks for the reply!
I can imagine this not being a priority. If it’s possible for me to contribute to do this I would like to, and am also able to. Have programming experience.
Just so you know.
