Description
Prologue
The Nextcloud community on Transifex produces the translations of your app. To this end, the app author undertakes to comply with the following requirements:
- The app must be available in the Nextcloud App Store. Should the app be removed from the store, the translation work on Transifex will be paused or the resource removed.
- The app author must create an account on Transifex and join the Nextcloud project. This makes it easier to respond to queries regarding the app’s strings.

Name of the Transifex user:
rikdekkerFor details see https://nextcloud.com/translation/ .
App ID: roomvox
Source template is translationfiles/templates/roomvox.pot — 469 strings, extracted from both the Vue frontend and the PHP backend, validated with msgfmt --check. All frontend call sites use the literal t('roomvox', '…') form, so the extractor sees the complete set.
One thing you may want to decide: translationfiles/{de,fr,nl}/roomvox.po are seeded with the app's existing hand-made German, French and Dutch translations (361 of 469 strings each), so those languages don't start from zero. Happy to drop them if you'd rather the resource started empty.
