This will copy the form to your Google Drive.\n\n\n---\n\n\n## Usage\n\nSee the [TSFormTranslator documentation](https://techstreams.github.io/TSFormTranslator)\n\n**Important Usage Notes:**\n\n* TSFormTranslator uses [Google Translate](https://translate.google.com/) to translate form elements.   Some *English words and phrases may not translate as expected* in all languages.  \n* Some *built-in* Google Form text *will not* be translated by TSFormTranslator.\n\n* Some translation languages may only be viewable in browsers such as [Chrome](https://www.google.com/intl/en-US/chrome/browser/).\n\n* [Form Page Navigation](https://support.google.com/docs/answer/141062) *will no longer work* after form translation.\n\n* Time, date and duration form field submissions will only show in English in the sent email.\n\n* Google Apps Scripts are subject to daily quota limits including the number of emails sent and the Trigger Aggregate Execution Time.   See the *Quota Limits* tab of the [Google Apps Script Dashboard](https://docs.google.com/macros/dashboard) for more information.\n\n* TSFormTranslator may not be appropriate for high traffic forms, especially in cases where the form owner consistently receives quota limit exceeded notifications. \n\n\n---\n\n\n## Contributing to this project\n\nContributions are welcome.

Run the following command from the project's root directory:*\n\n```sh\n$ gulp dev\n```\n\nYou can find gulp tasks in the [gulpfile](gulpfile.coffee).  \n\n\n---\n\n\n## License\n\nCopyright [Laura Taylor](https://github.com/techstreams)\n\nLicensed under the Apache License, Version 2.0 (the \"License\");\nyou may not use the files except in compliance with the License.\nYou may obtain a copy of the License at\n\nhttp://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0\n\nUnless required by applicable law or agreed to in writing, software\ndistributed under the License is distributed on an \"AS IS\" BASIS,\nWITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, either express or implied.\nSee the License for the specific language governing permissions and\nlimitations under the License.\n","funding_links":["https://www.buymeacoffee.com/techstreams"],"categories":["CoffeeScript"],"sub_categories":[],"project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Ftechstreams%2FTSFormTranslator","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Ftechstreams%2FTSFormTranslator","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Ftechstreams%2FTSFormTranslator/lists"}
