Collaborating
-------------
OnionShare has an open Keybase team that we use to discuss the project, including asking questions, sharing ideas and designs, and making plans for future development. (It's also an easy way to send end-to-end encrypted direct messages to others in the OnionShare community, like OnionShare addresses.) To use Keybase, you need to download the `Keybase app <https://keybase.io/download>`_, make an account, and `join this team <https://keybase.io/team/onionshare>`_. Within the app, go to Teams, click "Join a Team", and type "onionshare".

Verbose mode
^^^^^^^^^^^^
When developing, it's convenient to run OnionShare from a terminal and add the ``--verbose`` (or ``-v``) flag to the command. This will print a lot of helpful messages to the terminal such as when certain objects are initialized, when events occur (like buttons clicked, settings saved or reloaded), and other debug information. For example::

Contributing translations
-------------------------
Most of the OnionShare is translatable. You can help make it easier to use and more familiar and welcoming for people around the globe. The Localization Lab has some `documentation about translating OnionShare <https://wiki.localizationlab.org/index.php/OnionShare>`_.
Help make OnionShare easier to use and more familiar and welcoming for people by translating it on `Hosted Weblate <https://hosted.weblate.org/projects/onionshare/>`_. Always keep the "OnionShare" in latin letters, and use "OnionShare (localname)" if needed.
OnionShare uses Weblate to keep track of translations. You can view the OnionShare project here: https://hosted.weblate.org/projects/onionshare/

Suggestions for original English strings
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Sometimes the original English strings could be improved, making them easier to translate into other languages.
Sometimes the original English strings are wrong, or don't match between the application and the documentation.
If you have suggestions for a better English string, please open a GitHub issue rather than commenting in Weblate. This ensures the upstream developers will definitely see the suggestion, and can potentially modify the string via the usual code review processes.
File source string improvements by adding @kingu to your Weblate comment, or open a GitHub issue or pull request.
The latter ensures all upstream developers see the suggestion, and can potentially modify the string via the usual code review processes.
