## Adding a new language to Spacedeck Open
To add a new language to Spacedeck Open, follow these steps:
*The steps are illustrated with Spanish (locale 'es') as the new language*
- Include the new locale ('es') in the locale list (./spacedeck.js):
```
locales: ["en",..., "es"],
```
- Create the new translation file (/locales/**es.js**, a copy of /locales/en.js) and translate the entries.
- Include the javascript for the new translation at the end of /views/spacedeck.ejs:
```
...
window.locales.es = {};
...
window.locales.es.translation = <%- include "./../locales/es.js" %>;
</script>
```
- Include a radio button for users to select the new language (/views/partials/account.html)
```
<label class="radio" v-bind:class="{checked: user.prefs_language=='es'}" v-on:click="save_user_language('es')">
<input type="radio" id="user-preferences_language" name="language" value="es"><span>Español</span>
</label>
```
