Multi-language Support

guidebook supports building books in multiple languages.

Setup

Create a LANGS.md file in your book's root:

# Languages

* [English](en/)
* [日本語](ja/)
* [Tiếng Việt](vi/)

Then organize your content:

my-book/
├── LANGS.md
├── book.json
├── en/
│   ├── README.md
│   ├── SUMMARY.md
│   └── ...
├── ja/
│   ├── README.md
│   ├── SUMMARY.md
│   └── ...
└── vi/
    ├── README.md
    ├── SUMMARY.md
    └── ...

Language Selector

A language selector appears in the top-left corner, allowing readers to switch languages.

Tips

• Each language folder has its own SUMMARY.md
• You can have different content per language
• Images can be shared across languages using relative paths
