I would suggest to use chatgpt for translation. Just copy small part of json file in chatgpt and translate. And made few changes if required. I tried translating using this trick in another project it worked great.

Thanks @hyj1204 for creating this FR.
A to-do on my list is to explore translation platforms we can use to make translation tasks easier and more accessible to global translators.

Hey @hyj1204, What languages are missing in which you want the AppFlowy to be in future.

We welcome all new languages. You can choose your preferred language and start working.

All the language file we support now is under the folder AppFlowy/frontend/resources/translations/, however, except en.json, other language files may not be fully translated. For example, they don't have "Search emoji" since it was recently added in en.json. We would appreciate any improvement to our current language, as well as any new language.
