Research direction

Start with the message catalogs in lib/i18n/messages/en.ts and es.ts, and read how useI18n() provides t() and plural() in components/layout/locale-provider.tsx. Then find the hard-coded strings in components/colors/ (tabs, aria labels, toasts) and move each one behind t() with a key in both catalogs. Done when no literal UI strings remain in components/colors/, Spanish has every key, and pnpm test passes; generated CSS and token names stay in English.

Description

area: colors difficulty: medium enhancement help wanted

Summary

Translate the Color Studio (palette, shades, gradient, contrast and export tabs) into the existing locales.

Where to look

  • lib/i18n/messages/en.ts and es.ts: the message catalogs
  • components/layout/locale-provider.tsx: useI18n() gives t() and plural()
  • CONTRIBUTING.md, "Translating the interface"
  • components/colors/

Behaviour

  • Leave generated output (CSS, token names, file contents) in English; translate only the interface.

Acceptance criteria

  • Every visible string, aria label and toast in components/colors/ uses t().
  • Spanish is complete; pnpm test passes.
  • Lighthouse accessibility stays at 100 in both languages.

Getting started: fork the repo, then pnpm install and pnpm dev (Node 22+, pnpm 11, no API keys). Before opening a PR, run pnpm typecheck && pnpm test && pnpm lint && pnpm format:check && pnpm check:dashes && pnpm build. See CONTRIBUTING.md and the first contribution walkthrough.
