Hi.. recently we found so many repo documented in mandarin.<p>I mean they fork a repo originally in english. Why did they conribute back in mandarin ?<p>It give us one more barrier to learn a new things.
Imagine it was the other way around: you forked some code documented in Mandarin. Are you able to translate your contribution into Mandarin before submitting it back?<p>Did you know that there are more people in the world with Mandarin as a first langauge, than with English as a first language?<p>Here's a good new thing to learn: Google Translate! ;) — Seriously though: I found it very useful when using "Ant Design of React" in a recent project (a great UI library which is primarily documented in Chinese (or a dialect of), although also -partly- translated into English).<p>In most cases it's really not a big deal. Personally, I'll use libraries documented in any language, providing the code is fit for purpose, and the docs give me enough information (translated or not).
