Luanti Website

The official Luanti website, living at www.luanti.org.

Features

• Uses the Bulma CSS framework.
• Uses modern Web design techniques: rem units, hsl colors.
• Responsive site and favicon.
• Translation support using i18next.

Development workflow

This site uses the Eleventy static site generator.

• Ensure you have Node 24 or later installed.
  • We recommend using nvm. First install nvm, and then run nvm use whenever you open the project.
• Run npm install.
• Run npm start to serve the website locally.

Browser support

When working on new features, keep in mind this website only supports evergreen browsers:

• Chrome (two most recent versions)
• Edge (two most recent versions)
• Firefox (two most recent versions + latest ESR version)
• Opera (two most recent versions)
• Safari (two most recent versions)

Internet Explorer isn't supported.

Translation

For translators

Translate using Weblate: https://hosted.weblate.org/projects/minetest/website/

Enabling languages

When a language is reasonably complete, you can enable it like so:

• Copy content/fr to content/LANG_CODE where LANG_CODE is your language code.
• Rename content/LANG_CODE/fr.json to content/LANG_CODE/LANG_CODE.json.
• Edit content/LANG_CODE/LANG_CODE.json to have "lang": "LANG_CODE".
• Create a PR for your updates (or ask a maintainer to directly do this).

For developers

Luanti.org uses i18next for translations. This is exposed to liquid templates by a custom i18n filter:

{{ "Hello world" | i18n }}

As double curly braces are used by liquid, use double square braces instead:

{{ "Hello [[name]]" | i18n: "name", "Bob" }}

When Eleventy builds the website, it'll update the locales/en/translation.json file with any new strings it finds. It'll replace [[name]] with {{name}} to match i18next's interpolation syntax:

{
	"Hello {{name}}": "Bonjour {{name}}"
}

Updating translations

• Stop the site if it is running locally.
• Edit locales/en/translation.json to {} and save.
• Run npm start.
• Commit changes to locales.

Brand icons

• Discord
• Mastodon
• Reddit
