Hi @itsPLK,

First of all, thank you for developing this great plugin!

I would like to ask if there are any plans to support multiple languages in future releases?

To make it easier for you and the community, perhaps you could consider supporting external language pack files (like .json, .ini, or .txt)? If the text strings are separated into a standalone file, it would be very convenient for users to localize and translate the plugin by themselves without changing the core code.

If you are open to this, I would be more than happy to help translate the file into Simplified Chinese.

Thank you for your time and amazing work!

Hello!

Thanks for the offer, but I'm going to pass on adding multilanguage support for now. This project is intentionally small, and adding translation plumbing adds maintenance overhead that slows down updates.

Since the UI is very simple and uses basic vocabulary, it should be easy to navigate even without a strong grasp of English.

It might be something I look into in the future, but for now I want to focus on other things. Thanks anyway for the support and the offer to translate!

Multi-language support will be added in the next release.

You should be able to request new languages and add translations on Crowdin.
