Research direction

Start by reviewing the existing front-end documentation and theme structure, then identify how language selection and Dark/Light modes are currently handled. Define supported translation scope and WCAG contrast targets before implementation. Done means the UI supports the agreed languages and both themes meet the documented accessibility and readability criteria.

Description

Proposal: UI/UX Improvements (i18n & Theming)

@Naramsim

I propose contributing in front-end by implementing the following enhancements:

  • Internationalization (i18n) Support: Implement i18n to allow for multi-language documentation and UI, enabling future community translations.
  • Theme Refinement (Dark/Light Mode): Improve the existing Dark and Light themes for better visual polish and WCAG accessibility compliance (contrast, readability).
