Description

Allow automatically translate recipes to reach wider audience
I write, collect recipes in Hungarian. I want to have them translated automatically to English and check them before share. In that way, I can use an automatic translation service (google translate, bing, deepl....) and then check the translation by myself.

This is a feature request as the the interface already translated very well
If everyone write recipes in native language, and when happy with it, translate to a common language, we can share recipes.

Describe the solution you'd like
Add to settings:

  • add language

Add to recipe screen:

  • dropdown with select language
  • button to translate recipe to ..... with [app]
  • button to copy recipe to language ..... and then the user can translate it manually

When user switch to new language and directory /RecipeDir_LANGUAGE_CODE not exists, it's created.

Nice to have
Show not yet translated recipes in the current selected language: show all recipes but gray out what is in exists only in a different language

Define the supported translation-service flow, manual copy flow, and language-switching behavior; done means recipes can be translated or copied into a selected language and reviewed before sharing.
