[swift-dev] The Swift Programming Language Translations

[Rogelio Gudino]

I just started to look into this myself since I’m interested in doing the
Spanish translation. The first approach I’ll be trying is doing everything
in Markdown and compile it to ePub using Pandoc.

Based on this article http://nshipster.com/colophon/ , Pandoc may be a bit
painful to use, but I’m only interested in translating if it can be done
collaboratively through GitHub, so I’ll still give it a shot.

Here’s the repo I made for Spanish (Mexico)

Thanks,
Rogelio Gudino
