You can help with translations and programming
---
## Help us translate
We use our own [weblate instance](https://weblate.selfprivacy.org/projects/selfprivacy/selfprivacy-app/) to collaborate.
You can create an account and help us translate the project into your native language.
## If you're a programmer
You can read about how SelfPrivacy works in [documentation](https://selfprivacy.org/docs/theory/).
You can help us close Issues which are marked with the "Contributions welcome" tag. For example, at [this link](https://git.selfprivacy.org/kherel/selfprivacy.org.app/issues?q=&type=all&state=open&labels=118) you will see tasks tagged "Contributions welcome" for the main application.
We cannot approve major changes without the approval of the core developers. Of course you can create a fork of the project, but if you want to get approval, please discuss the proposed changes in one of the project chats:
- [Telegram: @selfprivacy_dev](https://t.me/selfprivacy_dev)
- [Matrix: @dev:selfprivacy.org](https/matrix.to/#/%23dev:selfprivacy.org)
### [Python](https://www.python.org/) / [NixOS](https://nixos.org/) - backend
The server side of SelfPrivacy uses the NixOS distribution, and a daemon program written in Python called SelfPrivacy API. The daemon works to provide a link between your server and SelfPrivacy app. You can read [here](https://git.selfprivacy.org/SelfPrivacy/selfprivacy-rest-api/src/branch/master/CONTRIBUTING.md) about how to test and make changes to the SelfPrivacy API.

You can also improve other components:
- [NixOS config](https://git.selfprivacy.org/SelfPrivacy/selfprivacy-nixos-config)
- [NixOS infect](https://git.selfprivacy.org/SelfPrivacy/selfprivacy-nixos-infect)
### [Dart](https://dart.dev/) + [Flatter](https://flutter.dev/) - frontend app
- [Repository](https://git.selfprivacy.org/kherel/selfprivacy.org.app)
### [Hugo](https://gohugo.io/) / [Docsy](https://docsy.dev/)
