[Feature] Adding translations to Optics workbench and using crowdin to manage them

[luzpaz]

@chbergmann We're trying to get popular workbenches translated and into crowdin

• Translation Support FreeCAD/Addons#15

Any interest in that ?

If your workbench is ready for translation, we can help you handle translations on the Crowdin platform.

[chbergmann]

I can do that when I have time.

[hasecilu]

Check my PRs on Render and CfdOF WBs, there is implemented the translation support in the correct way.

[luzpaz]

What's the status here ?

[chbergmann]

translations for German and Chinese have been added

[luzpaz]

I only see the german translations in https://github.com/chbergmann/OpticsWorkbench/blob/main/translations/

Also, is there a reason you're keeping the .qm file ?

Are you planning to use Crowdin, like other workbenches are ?

[hasecilu]

Also it's good idea to include the agnostic file (a clean file with no locale and no translations) for people that wants to also translate it.

Yes, they are needed to display the selected language. qm files are not generated automatically if somebody installs the Optics workbench.

I asked Yorik again for access to the FreeCAD-addons project. Once I got it I will do.

The agnostic file got lost, but anybody can use

I do not have one. But it is also easy to use any file in another language and exchange the translations. Or use crowdin once I got access and uploded the translations.

This WB has been added to CrowdIn, translations synced.
