Hi everybody,

If you start creating your component in your own non english language, you will soon discover that many keywords in the generated language files will be in your own native language. Cook simply takes your text entries and creates keywords for the translation files. So you will get entries like:

PROJECT_FIELD_MONATS_KALENDER instead of PROJECT_FIELD_MONTHLY_CALENDAR

So from my experience now, it is advisable to create your component entirely in English, then all the keywords in the translation files will be properly set in English. So you can create your own language files at the end of the process. This is particularly important if you are going to distribute your component and want the Joomla community to create translation files for you.

I`m Portuguese speaker, but I always build my extensions in English, because we never know when our customer will want to go international... In this case I don`t really bother to have a portuguese version, because at the end, I just get the translation files and make it whant ever I need

Freakin' Awesome!!! J-Cook is simply awesome - whether you're a highly experienced developer or complete novice whether you're building a small inventory component or a complete community solution! The beauty comes from a fast slick and reliable platform that readily provides developers with everything they'll need to build the backbone of a solid and secure component with wizards for authoring access publishing aliasing created/modified by dates... you name it COOK provides it! J-Cook really surpasses all of the 'competition' as far as MVC tools are concerned! Try love it and get cooking!
