Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/netblue30/firejail/issues/2977

It would be nice to localize firejail (man pages and all messages) into different languages. I presume a bunch of reorganization will have to take place to make it possible/feasible though.

As an added bonus, it would give a non-coding way for people to contribute :)

We have already one, you can find it in etc/ 😜

IMHO the manpage translation is more important and lesser reorganization.

If this would involve a translation platform, I'd recommend Weblate, which is
basically GitHub for translation. It's fully FLOSS (client and server) and
also hosting on the main instance is free for FLOSS projects:
