While we work on developing a built-in translation solution for Foreman, you can use your web browser's translation features as a temporary workaround. Most modern browsers offer automatic page translation that can help you use Foreman in your preferred language.
Note: Browser translation is a workaround while our team develops native multi-language support for Foreman. Built-in translation will provide more accurate terminology and a better overall experience. We appreciate your patience as we work on this feature.
