FEDIVERSE GUIDE
A quick look into Fediverse networks
Important
- "World" text on postActiv page is by @Maiyannah Bishop, main postActiv developer
Goals
-
Road Making: Provide links to information scattered around the internet. Make it easier for newcomers to get acquainted with the idea in general and with every federated network in particular.
-
Team Building: Unite all federated social networks under 'Fediverse' name. Highlight the sense and spirit of a Fediverse community.

Translating
Maintaining several website translations will require extra work. Please, read discussion.
Adding another language requires additions to _config file and /themes/starter/languages folder.
Mandatory for translating:
- create lang folder (
/source/*lang*) - common strings (
/themes/starter/languages/en) /source/_datafolder: fediverse.json, world.json
Translating Chronicles and Knowledge page content doesn't make sense (?). They will be mostly a collection of external English articles. If you're willing to become a permanent news contributor in another language and to search for Fediverse news in that language, let's discuss it in the issue.
