Research direction

Locate the macOS Info.plist.in template and the CMake install phase, then review how this project currently exchanges resources with Transifex. Done means strings are extracted into a new Transifex resource, translations can be pulled, and the localized Info.plist files are bundled correctly with the app.

Description

community os: macOS strings

macOS supports localisation of Info.plist files. Infrastructure should be created to do the following:

  1. Extract translatable strings from Info.plist.in
  2. Push them to a new resource on Transifex
  3. Pull the translations from Transifex
  4. Bundle them correctly with the app, preferably during the CMake install phase
