→Working with the sources
If you have downloaded all BaseX sources via [[Developing with Eclipse|Eclipse]] or [[Git]], you may proceed as follows:
All language files are placed in the <code>[https://github.com/BaseXdb/basex/tree/master/basex-core/src/main/resources/lang src/main/resources/lang]</code> directory of the main project:# Create a copy of an existing translation file (e.g., <code>English.lang</code>) and rename it to your target language (e.g. <code>Hawaiian.lang</code>).# Enter your name and contact information in the second line.
# If you are using Eclipse, refresh the project (via ''Project'' → ''Refresh''); if you are using Maven, type in {{Code|mvn compile}}. Your new language file will be automatically detected.
# Start the BaseX GUI, choose your language via ''Options'' → ''Preferences...'' and close the GUI.# Translate the texts in your language file and restart BaseX in order to see the changes.# Repeat the last step if you want to revise your translations. If new strings are added to BaseX, they will automatically be added to your language files in English. The history view in GitHub is helpful to see which strings have recently been updated to a file.
