GitHub Chinese (github-chinese) is a browser userscript, a small JavaScript program that runs inside your browser, that translates the GitHub website interface into Simplified Chinese. When you install it, all the menus, buttons, labels, and page titles on GitHub change to Chinese, making the platform much more accessible for Chinese speakers who find the English interface difficult to navigate. It works by using a script manager (like Tampermonkey or Violentmonkey, free browser extensions that run custom scripts on websites) and a vocabulary dictionary that maps English GitHub interface text to Chinese equivalents. The script uses pattern matching to detect which page you are on and applies the appropriate translations dynamically, even as GitHub loads new content. It can also translate repository descriptions using the Youdao machine translation engine, and it automatically localizes timestamps to match Chinese locale conventions. You would use this if you primarily read Chinese and find GitHub's English interface a barrier. It supports Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and other Chromium-based browsers. A development version (updated weekly) and a stable version (updated weekly via GreasyFork, a userscript distribution platform) are both available. The README and all documentation are written in Chinese. The project is built in JavaScript.
