The GitHub connector from Locale allows you to select specific content repositories within your GitHub instance, and send them for translation. This aims to help automate content processing by the various entities with which you work, anything from a professional translation agency, a specific person with access to a translation management system (TMS), or even machine translation (MT). Our goal with this connector is to aid in enabling lightening fast translations for your projects with the dedicated resources you trust most.
