Description

Proposal: Add Turkish (tr) localization for the React Native documentation.
TL;DR: Start with a pilot translation (e.g., Getting Started, Core Components) and expand gradually.

What is the problem?

Currently, the docs are only available in English. This creates a barrier for many Turkish developers who are new to React Native or mobile development.

How can we address it?

  • Create a Turkish (tr) docs section, either in this repo or a separate repo (similar to tr.react.dev for React).
  • Start with a small pilot: Getting Started + 1–2 key component pages.
  • Keep English as the source of truth, with a commitment to update translations regularly.

Why is it important?

  • React Native has a large Turkish developer community.
  • Localized docs will lower entry barriers and increase adoption.
  • Precedent: React docs already have an official Turkish community translation.

Who needs this?

  • New learners and students in Turkey.
  • Android/iOS devs transitioning to React Native.
  • Teams adopting React Native in Turkish companies.

When should this happen (use version numbers if needed)?

There’s no dependency on specific RN versions — this can start immediately as a community-driven translation effort.
