Translation strings
Translation strings allow you to define text in multiple languages for use in a Cakedesk template.
Define translations in your template.json file using the strings property. They can then be accessed using the t() helper.
#template.json example
{
"name": "A Template with Translations",
"strings": {
"tax": {
"de": "Steuer",
"en": "Tax"
},
"thank_you_for_your_trust": {
"de": "Danke für dein Vertrauen!",
"en": "Thank you for your trust!"
}
}
}
#EJS example
Use the strings above in your template.ejs file like so:
<p><%= t('thank_you_for_your_trust') %></p>
#Supported languages
Currently, Cakedesk supports the following languages:
- English (en)
- German (de)
- Dutch (nl)
- Hungarian (hu)
- Swedish (sv)
- Finnish (fi)

#Built-in strings
