Problem or Use Case

Currently, Hermes-agent lacks internationalization (i18n) / multi-language support. There is a growing number of Chinese-speaking users, and the absence of localized interfaces and documentation creates a barrier for non-English speakers to adopt and contribute to the project. This limits the project's ability to expand its influence and reach a broader global audience.

Proposed Solution

Implement internationalization (i18n) support for Hermes-agent, including but not limited to:

Extract user-facing strings into locale files (e.g., JSON or YAML-based translation files). Add a locale detection/configuration mechanism to allow users to select their preferred language. Prioritize Simplified Chinese (zh-CN) as the first additional language, given the large Chinese user base. Provide guidelines for community contributors to add translations for other languages in the future.

TL;DR

Implement internationalization (i18n) support for Hermes-agent by extracting user-facing strings into locale files and adding a locale detection mechanism.

Guidance

  • Extract user-facing strings into JSON or YAML-based translation files to support multiple languages.
  • Implement a locale detection/configuration mechanism to allow users to select their preferred language.
  • Prioritize Simplified Chinese (zh-CN) as the first additional language to support the large Chinese user base.
  • Establish guidelines for community contributors to add translations for other languages in the future.

Example

No specific code example is provided, but an example of extracting user-facing strings into a JSON translation file might look like:

{
  "hello": {
    "en": "Hello",
    "zh-CN": ""
  }
}

Notes

The implementation details of the i18n support will depend on the specific technologies and frameworks used in the Hermes-agent project.

Recommendation

Apply workaround by implementing the proposed i18n support to expand the project's global reach and improve user experience.
