In plain English

This repository distributes Chinese language packs for JetBrains coding tools. JetBrains makes a family of popular code editors and development environments used by software developers: IntelliJ IDEA for Java, PyCharm for Python, WebStorm for JavaScript, CLion for C and C++, GoLand for Go, PhpStorm for PHP, DataGrip for databases, Rider for .NET, RubyMine for Ruby, and Android Studio support. This project provides translated interface files so the menus, dialogs, and labels in these tools appear in Chinese rather than English. The README is written in Chinese and is brief. It explains that the repository exists as a dedicated storage location for the language pack files, which are distributed as JAR files (a type of Java archive). Because these files are large, they were separated from the parent translation project to make them easier to host and download reliably. The README notes that uploading and downloading the files from within the main project repository was often unreliable, which is why a dedicated repository was created. For usage instructions, help with common problems, and documentation, the README directs users to an external wiki. Source code, feedback, and issue reports belong in the parent project rather than this repository, which exists only for file distribution. The project covers JetBrains tool versions from around 2019, including IntelliJ IDEA 2019.3, PyCharm 2019.3, WebStorm 2019.3, and Android Studio 3.5. The README does not mention whether support for newer versions is available.
