in plain english

This repo provides Simplified Chinese translations of the official Python documentation. Python is one of the most popular programming languages in the world, and its official reference materials, tutorials, language guides, and library descriptions, are originally written in English. This project makes all of that documentation accessible to Chinese-speaking developers in their native language. The translation work itself doesn't happen directly on GitHub. Instead, volunteers work through a translation platform called Transifex, where they can collaboratively translate text segments. Once translations are completed there, they are synced back to this repository, organized by Python version. The project currently maintains translations for Python versions 3.10 through 3.15, with older versions (3.7 through 3.9) marked as end-of-life. Each version has badges showing sync status and how far along the translation progress is, so anyone can see at a glance how complete a given version is. The primary audience is Chinese-speaking developers, students, and educators who want to learn or reference Python without the extra cognitive load of reading technical English. For a beginner in China just starting to code, having the official Python tutorial and standard library reference in Simplified Chinese can significantly lower the barrier to entry. It's also useful for teachers running bootcamps or university courses who want to point their students at authoritative reference material in Chinese. Contributions are welcome from anyone who wants to help. Volunteers join the Chinese translation team on Transifex, and the project recommends reading a free software localization guide for Chinese (China) before getting started. Submitted translations are offered to the Python Software Foundation under a public domain license (CC0), meaning contributors give up copyright claims in exchange for the possibility of being credited in the project's acknowledgments or translators files. This keeps the documentation freely usable by everyone while still letting contributors get public recognition for their work.
