4. Infrastructure

4.1 Overview

phpGroupWare attempts to provide developers with a sound directory structure to work from.
The directory layout may seem complex at first, but after some use, you will see that it is designed to accommodate a large number of applications and functions.

4.3 Translations

The translations are now being done thru the database, and will be configurable to use other mechanisms.
We are completing a program called Transy, which will provide developers/translators a nice GUI for building and updating translations.
In the mean time you will need to create a SQL script yourself and name it lang.sql. You can copy the one in doc/lang.sql and use it as a template.
