I would like to work on this!
Also, if you could guide me on where to place the selector on the welcome page, as I'm not entirely sure if the placement I've chosen is optimal.

Thanks for offering the help. @Om-Gujarathi , your design looks good to me.
Adding @hyj1204 for a second opinion.

Since the original design is center aligned, I feel it would be better to maintain a consistent visual layout.
I made a design to move the selector to the center, right below the Appflowy logo, which indicates the current language selection of the app.
What do you think? @annieappflowy @Om-Gujarathi

Maybe moving the language selector to the bottom?

After considering the feedback I received, I'm open to any design that you think would work best for the welcome page. However, I personally believe that the language selector should be placed in the bottom half of the page, just like @annieappflowy @Xazin said. To continue with the center alignment of the welcome page as @hyj1204 said, this design might work:

AppFlowy WP

Please let me know what you think, I'm open to any other suggestions.

Do you have a link to the original design of the screen? Or can you link me to the figma file of your version if not (or both) 🙏

Edit: Just noticed you work directly in the code, but maybe you have a link to the original none the less?

Unfortunately, I do not have any links to the original design or a Figma file of my version. I work directly in the code, so I don't have access to those files.

Actually my work on adding the language selector feature is completed, but everything was working perfectly until I pulled the latest code.
WelcomePage

Specifically, the welcome text and language selector menu that I added are not clearly visible.
I would appreciate any suggestions or advice that you can offer on how to fix this.
