- You are familiar with Git commands and GitHub's tools at a basic level. <!-- TODO: Change to mention contributing.md once that released -->
- You have already set up an environment for development according to the README at https://github.com/pagefaultgames/pokerogue - You have already forked the repository and set up a development environment according to the [respository README] (https://github.com/pagefaultgames/pokerogue/blob/beta/README.md).
- You have joined the [community Discord](https://discord.gg/pokerogue) and joined the development channels via **[#select-roles](https://discord.com/channels/1125469663833370665/1194825607738052621)**. <!-- TODO: Get @SirsBenjie to add a good Git/GH tutorial for noobs -->
The development channels are the easiest way to keep in touch with the Translation Team and other developers. - You have a basic level of familiarity with Git commands and GitHub repositories.

## About the `pokerogue-locales` submodule ## About the `pokerogue-locales` submodule
PokéRogue's translations are managed under a dedicated repository at https://github.com/pagefaultgames/pokerogue-locales/. PokéRogue's translations are managed under a separate dedicated repository, [`pokerogue-locales`](https://github.com/pagefaultgames/pokerogue-locales/).
This repository is integrated into the main repository as a [git submodule](https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Git-Tools-Submodules) within the `public/locales` folder.

### What Is a Submodule? ### What Is a Submodule?
In essence, a submodule is a way for one repository (i.e. project) to use another repositoey internally (in this case, locales). In essence, a submodule is a way for one repository (i.e. `pokerogue`) to use another repository internally (`pokerogue-locales`).
From the perspective of the main project, the locales submodule is fairly simple to work with, but there are some important commands to keep in mind. From the perspective of the main project, the locales submodule is fairly simple to work with, but there are some important commands to keep in mind.
#### Setting Up the Submodule in Your Main Fork #### Fetching Changes from Submodules
When you first start development in your main fork, you can fetch translations from the locales repo with this command: Once you have set up your fork, run the following command to integrate the latest locales changes into your branch:
```bash ```bash
git submodule update --init --recursive git submodule update --init --recursive
``` ```
[^1] [^1]
(This step is unnecessary if you ran `git clone` with the `--recurse-submodules` flag as specified in the README.)
[^1]: If you run into issues with your development environment after doing so, you may have to delete the `.git/modules/public` and `public/locales` folders before re-running the command. This is run automatically after merge or switching branches, so you _usually_ won't have to run it manually in most cases.
#### Updating Locales to the Latest Version
When you need to fetch recent locale changes into your working branch, you can do so with this command: [^1]: If you run into issues with your development environment afterwards, try deleting the `.git/modules/public` and `public/locales` folders before re-running the command.
<!-- TODO: Add a VS Codr `tasks.json` with this as a task -->
```bash
git submodule update --remote --recursive
```
(This is run automatically on merge or switching branches, so you _usually_ won't have to run it in most cases.
