Add a German and French versions of the glossary

[bernardsilenou]

We need a way to display glossary in different languages. When users connect to the main page, they would be able to choose the langue that they want to read the glossary in.

[bernardsilenou]

@JonasCir Any idea of how we can go about this? Want to plan it for the coming sprint.

[JonasCir]

Huh this will require some work

@JonasCir
Please can you add any further information that we can use to estimate the ticket, ie complete the refinement.
Thanks
@JaquM @kwa20

[JonasCir]

Hard to estimate upfront, I would guess something between 1-2 days? but don't quote me that is a guesstimate :D

[bernardsilenou]

@JonasCir yea that is fine, we would to the actual planning latter, this is just to have a very rough idea. Danke

Hallo @JonasCir

How can I access the source code Files (HTML/CSS) to start to implement the multiple languages buttons ?!

[JonasCir]

Hi @MaMH20 happy to meet you! :)

I had some time today and I found out the stack we are running is already capable of supporting internationalization.
We are using mkdocs-material as static site generator.

I also added new folders under docs for the languages @bernardsilenou @Candice-Louw .

There are still some open issues with my approach so I decided to start a discussion with the developers of the tool, but I think we can resolve in time.
Maybe you @MaMH20 can keep an eye on the discussion I started as well? :)

[JonasCir]

@MaMH20 Have a look at my comment on the discussion. There you find a link for a working example. The only question is how to get the generated files properly deployed to GitHub pages. I think this is solvable.

I don't have have to push this further, but if you need help please reach out and I do my best :)

[bernardsilenou]

@JonasCir
Woww! you did a great job already, its working good.
Thanks

[JonasCir]

@MaMH20 https://github.com/JamesIves/github-pages-deploy-action
can be used to deploy to pages :)

So course of action:

1. Checkout the link in my discussion comment
2. make the changes to our repo
3. introduce a github action which builds the mkdocs for each language
4. and then use https://github.com/JamesIves/github-pages-deploy-action to publish

[MaMH20]

Hi @JonasCir happy to meet you too! :)
