Help us translate the Processing software to your native language

We've put a huge amount of work into making it possible for Processing 3 to run in multiple languages. If you'd like to help the community by adding a new language or improving an existing translation, there are two options:

  • You can build the code and modify the .properties files inside processing/build/shared/lib/languages to add or modify an existing language. When you have updates, submit a pull request with the updates.

  • If you're not comfortable with building from source, simply make a folder called languages inside your sketchbook. Then copy one of the existing .properties files from your Processing download, and edit away. You'll probably need to restart Processing to see the changes.

This has been an exciting improvement in recent releases, and it's been great to see all the help from the community, which has provided several new languages and continued to refine them. Join us and contribute!
