Translate into Persian

[Mehraddev]

Hello Express.js team,

I'm interested in contributing to the project by translating the documentation into Persian. I believe this could help expand the framework's accessibility to Persian-speaking developers.

Before I begin i wanted to ask if such a contribution would be helpful to the project and if there are any specific guidelines I should follow. If there's already an ongoing effort for this, I'd be happy to collaborate.

Looking forward to your feedback!

Hi @Mehraddev here are some guides on how to start - https://github.com/expressjs/expressjs.com/blob/gh-pages/CONTRIBUTING.md#contributing-translations

If you have any questions, feel free to ask. Someone from the team will help you (as soon as we can).

is there any way to preview my work? i don't seem to find .html files to view the changes.

Hi @Mehraddev 👋

This website is built with Jekyll, which is built with Ruby. A little Google search on "how to install Jekyll" will help you.

Please read the README.md available at the root of this project, it includes instructions to run the site locally.

@Mehraddev Also, we recently implemented Netlify deploy previews. So when you open a PR, a preview site will be deployed that implements the change, e.g. https://deploy-preview-1568--expressjscom-preview.netlify.app/ for PR #1568. You may want to also run/test changes locally, but if not you can at least see them with the deploy preview.

Hey @Mehraddev I am assigning this to you 🎉

If you need any real-time help, we are available in the OpenJS Slack.

TL;DR - please use a draft PR for development.

Just a note: If you do end up not running it locally, and rather using the preview feature, the best way for us is if you can please make it a draft pull request during development. Then when you switch it to a full non-draft, we know it's ready for review.
