The Chinese want a translated version of <https://stefan-oltmann.de/oni-seed-browser/|https://stefan-oltmann.de/oni-seed-browser/>

I worked on that, even included a font (Noto Sans UI) that contains the chars, but it still shows up a a broken character (this rectangle). (Only the world traits are translated yet.)

Is a Chinese i18n supposed to work or is this known as currently broken?

If I copy these values to deepl the translation looks correct. So nothing broken there.

I tried to find Noto Sans UI font, but I don't see it here
<https://fonts.google.com/noto/>

I think it should work if you try to add <https://fonts.google.com/noto/specimen/Noto+Sans+SC> as a fallback font.

Also,  there is a "Type tester" to check if the glyphs are available in the font <https://fonts.google.com/noto/specimen/Noto+Sans/tester>

Thank you.

Looks like Noto Sans UI indeed does not include that chars as Noto Sans SC (whooping 11 MB per TTF) work.

also try adding lang="zh-CN" (or whatever the language code for Chinese (Simplified) is) to the translated pages. That'll help make sure the kanji is rendered the "Chinese" way, not the Japanese/Taiwanese/Korean way (the differences are subtle but can be noticed by nativesあ)

To the root of the HTML page or to the elements in Chinese.

I use "zh-CN" (simplified chinese) as "zh", so it falls back to that if the user has some of the other chinese flavors (expect TW)

For Korean there seems to be a separate Noto Sans Korean TTF (6 mb)

These files are pretty huge, so I'm just looking into subsetting/stripping/trimming them. Not a lot of options to do that.

<https://github.com/zachleat/glyphhanger> looks promising. I'm thinking of putting this into a GitHub Action run.

I mean, you're not supposed to ship the whole thing in web scenarios.
E.g. if you use Google Fonts API, it'll only download characters that are needed when needed.
Or is it a Compose app?

Oh shoot it's a Compose app, I forgot that we're in <#C01F2HV7868|> :sweat_smile: :man-facepalming:

The `glyphhanger` one looks great, it can even make julienne fries
