Feature Request: Add Language Switching / Localization Support

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I am a native Chinese speaker, and I find it quite challenging to use the software when the interface is only in English (or another language I’m not fully comfortable with). Currently, there is no option to switch the UI language, which makes navigation and daily usage frustrating for me and likely for many other non‑English users.

Describe the solution you’d like I would really appreciate it if you could add a language‑switching feature – for example, a dropdown menu or a settings option that allows users to choose their preferred language. Even a basic translation for the main menus and common actions would greatly improve the experience for international users.

Additional context I understand that implementing full localization can be time‑consuming, especially if you don’t have a dedicated translation team. However, I am more than willing to help with the translation work (at least for Chinese). If you provide the source strings, I can contribute the Chinese translations, test them, and even assist with reviewing other community contributions.

Adding this feature would not only make your software more accessible to a wider audience, but it would also show that you value your global user base. I’m happy to collaborate on this and make the process as smooth as possible for you.

Thank you for considering my suggestion. I look forward to your feedback!

I'll be watching this issue closely, so feel free to ping me here (via @mention) if you need my help with the translations
