👋 Automatic translation of sections and items

CentralApp simplifies section and menu translation with dedicated tabs for each activated language, identifiable by their language codes. An orange dot highlights any missing translations.

To save time, use the automatic translation feature, which is based on the source language. However, make sure to review the results, as informal or specific expressions might lead to errors.
