## What's cobalt?
cobalt is a social and media platform downloader that doesn't piss you off.
cobalt is social and media platform downloader that doesn't piss you off.
It's fast, friendly, and doesn't have any bullshit that modern web is filled with: no ads, trackers, or analytics.
Paste the link, get the video, move on. It's that simple. Just how it should be.

It's easy and straightforward to use, [check out the docs](https://github.com/wukko/cobalt/blob/current/docs/API.md) and see for yourself.
Feel free to use the main API instance ([co.wuk.sh](https://co.wuk.sh/)) in your projects.
## How to contribute translations
You can translate cobalt to any language you want on [cobalt's Crowdin](https://crowdin-co.wukko.me/). Feel free to ignore QA errors if you think you know better. If you don't see a language you want to translate cobalt to, open an issue, and I'll add it to Crowdin.
### Translation guidelines:
- Text is **ALWAYS** stylized as **lowercase** unless it's STRESSED LIKE THIS or is an internal value like `{ContactLink}` or `{appName}`.
- Example: "`this is a live video, i am yet to learn how to look into future. wait for the stream to finish and try again!`".
*Notice how **everything is lowercase**, no matter the punctuation marks? Yes, that's cobalt's style and you have to follow it.*
- Avoid extremely formal language, leave it for big and classy tech companies. Use informal language wherever possible.
- You can (and should) rephrase sentences as long as they keep the same sense and send the same message as original.
- Do **NOT** use offensive or explicit vocabulary.
- Check if there are issues in UI with your localization and optimize it accordingly. If impossible, open an issue.
- Be nice.

### Docker
It's also possible to run cobalt via Docker. I *highly* recommend using Docker compose.
Check out the [example compose file](https://github.com/wukko/cobalt/blob/current/docker-compose.yml.example) and alter it for your needs.
