This page describes in short how you can help translating ACE3 into your language.

1. If you don't already have a GitHub account create one at http://github.com
2. Open the ACE3 repository at https://github.com/acemod/ACE3
3. In the top right corner press the "Fork" button
4. You are being redirected to your personal fork, a version that is hosted on your GitHub account (it says "yourUsername/ACE3")
5. Clone that fork to your PC (There are a lot of tools and tutorials how to do this (e.g. [GitHub for Windows](https://windows.github.com)))
6. Download [tabler](https://github.com/bux578/tabler/releases) and extract it somewhere
7. Open the tabler.exe and in the menu click "File > Open language files"
8. Point tabler to the cloned ACE3 directory
9. Start translating
10. When done go to the menu and click "File > Save language files"
11. Commit your changes to your local cloned repository
12. Sync (Push) your commit(s) to your fork
13. Create a Pull Request for your changes

(The last three steps require some git knowledge, but there are a lot of tutorials out there)
