Translation Rules

The translator follows strict rules to ensure consistent and accurate translations:

Preserved in English

• All section headers (including those with HTML tags)
• All HTML-wrapped headers and subheadings
• Product names (e.g., Cloud Z CP)

• Service names (e.g., Container Management Service)
• Tool names (e.g., Chrome, Gitea)
• Version numbers and technical specifications
• Table headers in markdown tables
• Section IDs in curly braces

Translated to Target Language

• All paragraphs and content text
• Descriptions and explanations
• UI messages and instructions
• List items and bullet points
• Table content (except headers)
• Sentences containing product names (while keeping the names in English)

Consistency Requirements

• No mixed language content within sentences
• Complete translation of all paragraphs
• Preservation of markdown structure and formatting
• Exact maintenance of whitespace and line numbers

Example Usage

# Translate a directory
zmp-translate \
  --source-dir "./repo/docs/zcp/v2.0" \
  --target-dir "./repo/i18n" \
