Launchpad Help > Translations
Overview
Using Launchpad, you can translate free software projects and distribution packages into your own language. All you need are your Launchpad account and a web browser. There's no special software and in most cases you don't need to join a team to get started.
Tip: if you haven't already, tell Launchpad which languages you want to work with. Once you've done that, Launchpad will only show you the languages you're interested in.
