## What's cobalt?
cobalt is social media downloader with zero bullshit. It's efficient, easy to use, and doesn't bother you with ads or privacy invasion "consent" popups.
It preserves original media quality so you get best downloads possible (unless you change that in settings).

## How you can help cobalt speak your language
Take English or Russian localization from [this directory](https://github.com/wukko/cobalt/tree/current/src/localization/languages) and use it as a base for your translation. Then simply make a pull request and it'll be out for everyone upon review!
### What you should keep in mind:
- Do **NOT** use formal language, that's boring and lame. Use informal language on all occasions.
- Strings are **ALWAYS** lowercase unless it's an internal value like {ContactLink} or STRESSED LIKE THIS.
- Keep translations as friendly and fun as possible.
- Word-for-word translations from original language are not valid.
- You can rephrase sentences as long as they keep the same sense.
- You can add wordplays or puns if it feels natural to do so.
- Even though I love cursing, keep that away from translations.
- Always check if there are issues in UI with your localization.
- There's no need to translate `ChangelogContentTitle` and `ChangelogContent`, because those are very often changed. You can remove both of them from your translation file.
- Add "(in english)" in translation language to `ChangelogLastCommit` and `ChangelogLastMajor`, because those are almost always kept exclusively in English. Remove that phrase if you do translate major update changelog.
- Be nice.
