# Internationalization (i18n) Internationalization (i18n) is the practice of designing and developing systems, content, and applications so they can be adapted for users from different cultures, regions, or languages.

We had stands at FrOSCon (photo, next to our friends from Phosh), FOSSY (pictured above) as well as DEFCON and the following postmarketOS / Linux Mobile related talks were given: Automated testing of a phone operating system (Luca at FrOSCon) Push-Benachrichtigungen. Dezentral und OpenSource (Daniel G. at FrOSCon) Random Cool Things from postmarketOS (a linux-based mobile OS) (Ranny at DEFCON) Controlling our devices: linux on mobile (Ranny at DEFCON) Besides that we have of course been very busy planning our own conference and are happy to announce that the schedule is now live! For those who did not get a ticket, the event is completely booked now but we are trying to do video recordings and/or live streams so you can watch the talks at home (no promises for that though since this is our first event). If all goes well, we might even follow up with another one next year. For those who will be there, make sure to join the Matrix chat / IRC channel. Organizational OSUOSL, who maintain gitlab.postmarketos.org, have reacted to slowdowns we have observed across the site and made it significantly faster by moving git repositories to SSDs. Thanks, Lance! Paul has joined the infrastructure team. NLnet and NGI Zero Core related news A production debuginfod server for postmarketOS and Alpine was set up, "allowing developers to automatically fetch debug symbols during crash analysis with tools like coredumpctl and gdb" (!9468, sync-debuginfod, milestone 34) An update was posted by Rich on the collation + i18n support in musl libc project: "I'm pleased to announce a big step in the #musl locale overhaul project: collation is working! This is the result of a long project to design data structures and logic that would admit honoring the full Unicode Collation Algorithm rules, including equivalence under normalization, and keep the size of collation weight tables for the entirety of Unicode under control."

We're thrilled to share what our community has been building and improving since last month. Before we get to that, let's talk about the most recent Linux After Dark episode: It seems when the four hosts do a distro challenge, they do it properly. They didn't just try postmarketOS on one or two devices, but on all of these: ASUS Transformer Pad 3G, Linx 7 tablet (Generic X86_64), Motorola Moto G 2015, PinePhone Pro, PinePhone, Pinebook Pro and Acer R11/ASUS C200/Lenovo Duet 3 (Chromebooks). The resulting episode is not only very entertaining, but also gives many insights into first use experiences! Organizational We have applied for an NGI0 grant for Collation + i18n support in musl libc and it has been accepted! Collation allows set ordering based on locales, and follows a certain set of established rules and standards. Internationalization provides basic functionality in the language of choice for the user like dates, times, numbers, and monetary symbols. The implementation will be done by main author and maintainer of musl libc Rich and will benefit postmarketOS, Alpine Linux and all other users of musl libc. Thanks Rich, Pablo and NLNet! knuxify is our newest Trusted Contributor! They work a lot on the postmarketOS wiki, are mainlining the Broadcom Kona series chipsets, co-maintaining the Exynos 4 close to mainline kernel fork and more. Read their TC page for more information. Thanks knuxify! We wrote detailed blog posts on finances and priorities for 2025. Thanks Pablo and Oliver! Our Matrix/IRC bridge is now self-hosted. Thanks Luca, Ferass, Oliver! GitLab CI with our custom runner now works reliably (#101). Thanks Oliver!

It provides project templates, optional add-ons for tools and services such as TypeScript, Tailwind CSS, formatting, linting, testing, databases, authentication, internationalization, and Storybook, and migration support for upgrading Svelte 4 projects to Svelte 5. ### Source excerpt We've just released sv, a new Command Line Interface (CLI) for creating, enhancing, and upgrading Svelte projects. One of the most common question we hear is "how do I set up Tailwind on my new project?". Tailwind has SvelteKit documentation, but it lists eight steps. While the community-led svelte-add project could automate the process, few knew about it. Introducing sv at Svelte Summit Fall 2024 Now, we're offering that functionality via our own CLI, directly within the project creation screen. And not just for Tailwind -- we have built-in add-ons for formatting, linting, testing, setting up databases and auth and i18n and more. Just run npx sv create and follow the prompts: $ npx sv create β”Œ Welcome to the Svelte CLI!

In the near future, we will also be supporting add-ons contributed by the community within sv. If you're interested in building one, please subscribe to the issue in the CLI repository to be notified when third party add-ons are supported. It doesn't stop there. Over time, Svelte has accumulated a handful of CLIs: svelte-check type-checks your project from the command line, npx svelte-migrate helps you upgrade to new major versions, and in the future we might have even more capabilities. Remembering the package name of each tool is cumbersome, which is why we unify the experience under one roof, sv. That means you can now run sv migrate svelte-5 to upgrade your Svelte 4 projects to Svelte 5.

Right-side menu support addresses RTL interface layouts, while the tab-order discussion concerns keyboard navigation and input cycles. ### Source excerpt As I mentioned the other day, we have a lot of new features and announcements. Today I'd like to discuss the upcoming right side menu bar and new tab order functionality. Right SideMenu The old SideMenuBar supported the placement of the menu anywhere we want. We could place it in the left/right/top or bottom. The problem was that this support was painfully unreliable and inconsistent. When we migrated to the Toolbar API we ignored that support and only included the left side menu support. For some of us this isn't a big deal. Just a small limitation. However, if your app is localized to an RTL language this might be a problem. ## a11y and a brief numeronyms primer DevFeed: [a11y and a brief numeronyms primer]() Original publisher: [Read original article]() Author: Scott O'Hara Published: 2017-08-26T00:00:00Z Content type: article Language: en Sources: [The A11Y Project]() Topics: [Accessibility](), [Internationalization (i18n)](), [Localization (l10n)](), [virtualization]() Tags: [accessibility](), [article](), [writing]() ### AI overview This article explains that a11y is a numeronym for accessibility and introduces how numeronyms combine letters and numbers. It gives examples such as i18n, l10n, v12n, W3, and W3C, and advises using the full word "accessibility" when possible so the meaning remains clear. ### Source excerpt If you're unfamiliar with the term "numeronym", you may not have realized that a11y isn't just a hash tag, nor is it a hip way to spell ally. Rather a11y is a shorthand for accessibility. You may have seen "a11y" used as a hash tag on Twitter, or used in a comment, article, used in a comment thread, or written in an article. Since you're reading this right now, you've likely seen it in the name of a certain website about accessibility. Ahem... How numeronyms work Unlike abbreviations like FYI (for your information), and PC (personal computer), or acronyms like HTML (hypertext markup language), and JAWS (Job Access With Speech), numeronyms are number-based words. And while you may not be familiar with the term "numeronym" itself, you've likely used them throughout your life. For instance, "9-1-1" is synonymous with "help", "24/7" means "24 hours a day, 7 days a week", and Y2K is for "year 2000" or "the year 2000 problem." These are all examples of numeronyms. As illustrated by the previous numeronyms, sometimes they're used to replace entire words with numbers, or they use a combination of letters and numbers to combine words. In the case of a11y, Adrian Roselli explains: Skip embedded Tweet. Tip: "a11y" is a numeronym for accessibility. Keep first & last letter, between them put the count of letters removed -- in this case eleven. -- aardrian (@aardrian) November 22, 2016 Other numeronyms The following is a short list of numeronyms you may have seen, or even used, but didn't know what they were called. i11l international i18n internationalization l10n localization n7m Numeronym v12n Virtualization W3 World Wide Web W12t Web Development W3C World Wide Web Consortium Back to a11y While numeronyms have been around for quite some time, they're not always immediately understandable. As a defining trait of accessibility is about being inclusive, one should keep the following in mind when using a11y: If you can say or write "accessibility", do so!
