What is Crowdin?

Crowdin is a cloud-based solution that streamlines localization management for your team. It's the perfect place to effectively manage all of your multilingual content.

The Joomla CMS official language packs and many other aspects of the project are managed using Crowdin to facilitate managing L10n activities.

Getting Started

Create an account

To start using Crowdin, create an account at https://joomla.crowdin.com. If you're already using GitHub to contribute to the project, you can use your GitHub login (along with a few other OAuth options) to sign up to Crowdin.

Once you've created your account, visit the Crowdin Project for Joomla to contribute to Joomla 4 core translations, other translations for Joomla websites, Joomla marketing projects and other Joomla extensions.

Joomla 3 translations are mainly stored on Crowdin too, but managed outside Joomla's Crowdin Enterprise structure, but the setup works the same in regards to contributing translations.

Translating Documentation

Joomla Documentation doesn't use Crowdin for translation as it's built into the wiki. See the Documentation Translation Quickstart guide for more information.
