## Translating

Feather now has translation support, all localizations are located in `Feather/Resources/Localizable.xcstrings`.

To add a new language, open Xcode and use the interface to add/contribute to languages.

To properly contribute and test potentially test localizations, you can head over to the [contributing guide](./CONTRIBUTING.md).

It's under this specific license because I wanted to make a project that is transparent to the user thats related to certificate paired sideloading, before this project there weren't any open source projects that filled in this gap.
