Please use a different journal app instead.**\n\n## Website\n\nFeatures and FAQs can be found on the website: [**minidiary.app**](https://minidiary.app)\n\n## Development\n\nThe application is built with Electron and React. To run or build the app yourself, you'll need to have Node.js and Yarn installed.\n\n### Running the app\n\n1. Clone this repository: `git clone REPO_URL`\n2. Navigate into the project directory: `cd mini-diary`\n3. Install the dependencies: `yarn`\n4. Run the app: `yarn start`\n\n### Building the app\n\nAfter cloning the repo and installing the dependencies, run `yarn build`. The packaged app can be found in the `dist` folder.\n\n## Contributing\n\n### Features and Bugs\n\nSuggestions and contributions are always welcome! Please first discuss changes via issue before submitting a pull request.\n\n### Adding missing translations\n\nThe list of all English strings can be found in [`en.ts`](./src/main/i18n/translations/en.ts). If there are translations missing for your language and you'd like to help with the translation, you can add the translated strings to your language's file in [`src/main/i18n/translations`](./src/main/i18n/translations) and submit a PR.\n\n### Adding a new language\n\nIf the app isn't translated into your language yet and you'd like to help out, you can easily add translations with the following steps:\n\n1. The translation files can be found in [`src/main/i18n/translations`](./src/main/i18n/translations). Duplicate the [`en.ts`](./src/main/i18n/translations/en.ts) file as `[LANG].ts`, where `[LANG]` is the [shortcode of your language](https://electronjs.org/docs/api/locales).\n2. In the file you just created, replace the English translations with your own.\n3. Import your file in the `ALL_TRANSLATIONS` object in [`src/main/i18n/i18n.ts`](./src/main/i18n/i18n.ts).\n4. Add your language shortcode to the `electronLanguages` array in [`package.json`](./package.json).\n5. Run the app in your language (see the steps [above](#development)) and make sure that the translations fit into the app (e.g. that they aren't too long for input fields).\n6. Submit a PR.
