Description

Increasing Access

Arabic is widely used; adding it lets more people use the editor in their language and fits the goal of making the editor accessible to everyone.

Feature enhancement details

I’d like to add Arabic as a language option. I have a full set of UI strings translated to Modern Standard Arabic in translations.json, matching the structure of the existing locale files. I’ll open a PR with that file and the needed updates in i18n.js.

Research direction

Review the existing locale structure in translations.json and the language registration logic in i18n.js. Add the provided Modern Standard Arabic strings and register Arabic as an editor language option. Done means the Arabic option appears and the editor UI uses the translated strings.
