Translation of the Python Documentation — pa

Punjabi (Gurmukhi) translation of the Python documentation.

This project aims to translate Python's official documentation into Punjabi (Gurmukhi) and make Python learning resources more accessible to Punjabi-speaking developers, students, and educators.

🎉 All currently tracked translation files are complete and validated.

The repository currently contains fully translated and validated files across:

• Tutorial Documentation
• Core Library Reference
• bugs.po
• glossary.po

All translation files pass GNU gettext validation checks, are tracked in GitHub, and pass repository-wide validation.

Completed major translation milestones:

• bugs.po
• glossary.po
• library/functions.po
• library/stdtypes.po
• library/functools.po
• library/exceptions.po
• Complete Tutorial Documentation Set

Repository status: Active development

Latest milestone: Language tag standardized to pa and translations uploaded to Transifex

All completed translation files successfully pass validation.

msgfmt --check bugs.po
msgfmt --check tutorial/FILENAME.po
msgfmt --check library/FILENAME.po

Coordinator: @BHUVANSH855

Current repository translations have been uploaded to Transifex.

Current priorities:

1. Review repository structure against docsbuild-scripts requirements
2. Open Python Devguide translation listing PR
3. Configure automated Transifex synchronization
4. Expand translation coverage into:
   • Reference Documentation
   • Using Python Documentation
   • What's New Documentation
5. Grow the Punjabi translation community

Project goals are aligned with the Python Documentation Translation initiative and focus on expanding Punjabi-language access to Python learning resources while maintaining translation quality and terminology consistency.

• Translate Python documentation into Punjabi (Gurmukhi)
• Maintain terminology consistency through a shared glossary
• Follow Python documentation translation guidelines
• Ensure translation quality through automated validation
• Build a contributor community around Punjabi translations
• Contribute to the Python documentation translation ecosystem
