Joost De Cock b34a2ee2ed feat: Flat import of markdown repo
This is a flat (without history) import of (some of) the content
from our markdown module.

We've imported this without history because the repo contains our
blog posts and showcases posts content prior to porting them to strapi.

Since this contains many images, it would balloon the size of this repo
to import the full history.

Instead, please refer to the history of the (archived) markdown repo

The **i18n** plugin provides translation for your pattern:
<Example part="path_attr" caption="An example in English" design={false} options={{locale: 'en'}} />
<Example part="path_attr" caption="An example in French" design={false} options={{locale: 'fr'}} />
It uses the [`insertText`](/plugins#inserttext) hook to do so.
<Note>
This plugin provides the mechanism for translation, but does not come with translations itself.
For this, you can use our [i18n package](/reference/packages/i18n).
</Note>
## Installation
```bash
npm install @freesewing/plugin-i18n
```
## Usage
Like all [build-time plugins](/guides/plugins/#build-time-plugins), you load them
by passing them to the [`freesewing.Design`](/reference/api#design) constructor:
```js
import aaron from "@freesewing/aaron";
import i18n from "@freesewing/plugin-i18n";
import translations from "@freesewing/i18n";
const pattern = new aaron()
.use(i18nPlugin, { strings: translations });
```
You should also pass a second argument which holds your translations.
It should be structured as such:
```js
{
strings:
en: {
example: "Example"
},
nl: {
example: "Voorbeeld"
},
// More languages can follow
}
}
```
