## Prerequisites

Request write access to https://github.com/collective/plone.app.locales to be able to commit your translation directly.

To do so, [join the collective GitHub organization](https://collective.github.io/).

Optionally sign the [Plone Contributor Agreement](https://plone.org/foundation/contributors-agreement) for translating Volto.
Because translation strings do not constitute an original "work", translators are not required to sign the [Plone Contributor Agreement (PCA)](https://plone.org/foundation/contributors-agreement) to contribute translations to either Plone or Volto.

Translators will need to create an account on Weblate with an email and password.
Authentication with GitHub and other third-party accounts might not work.
You can [configure your Weblate account to receive notifications](https://hosted.weblate.org/accounts/profile/#notifications) either automatically whenever you make a contribution to a project or manually watch specific projects.

Translators can go to the [Plone project in Weblate](https://hosted.weblate.org/projects/plone/).

You will see several components listed.
The `volto` component is for the package `volto`, whose repository is at https://github.com/plone/volto.

```{note}
At this moment Volto translations can't be contributed using Weblate.
The Volto Team are working on this issue, and hope to fix it as soon as possible.
```

All other components are for the package `plone.app.locales`, whose repository is at https://github.com/collective/plone.app.locales.

See the Weblate documentation, [Translating using Weblate](https://docs.weblate.org/en/latest/user/translating.html), for how to use it to write translations.
