- The internationalization is cookie based, so you won't get to back to English every time you navigate out of the translated part of the website.

While technically correct, I have dropped internationalization some time ago - the idea that we can maintain it long term at this point is sci-fi.

Hint: Most much more popular OSS projects like boost.org are not internationalised either. Obviously, it buys you nothing and costs a lot.

Yes, in case of U++ this is definitely true. For small, commercial project, this might be useful.

And using cookies means having that nasty GDPR prompt.

This is not true. Language preference is not considered to be personal data and storing it in cookie is not considered to be tracking. Believe me, I work in advertisment and implementing GDPR makes about 40% of my work

Cool, good to know.

Using skylark for website is really really tempting. Actually, using it for anything is tempting, makes me sort of sad that it has so little audience...

But right now, it is really not priority I am afraid. There is a ton of things to do first, I still hope to release next version this month. Also, actual redesign of website would be great; I feel like it is now quite bloated, e.g. compared to that boost.org page. I would like to have more clear facts instead of tons of bad english noise texts and decorations... Smile

BTW, how would you feel about writing something about Skylark for e.g. CodeProject?
