Jekyll Language Plugin is an internationalization plugin for [Jekyll][jekyll]. It diversifies pages, posts and includes that have been optimized for the use with this plugin into different languages which are organized into subdirectories named after the language name.

This plugin has been developed with user-simplicity in mind. It does not require a complex setup process unlike some other internationalization plugins.

## Features

* Translates pages and posts into multiple languages
* Supports all template languages that your Liquid pipeline supports.
* Uses liquid tags in your HTML for including translated strings and language-specific includes.
* Supports localized dates via liquid filter
* Supports localized URLs
* Works with `jekyll serve --watch`
* Supports includes translated into multiple languages

## Installation

This plugin is available as a [RubyGem][ruby-gem].

Add this line to your application's `Gemfile`:

```
gem 'jekyll-language-plugin'
```

And then execute the `bundle` command to install the gem.

Alternatively, you can also manually install the gem using the following command:

```
$ gem install jekyll-language-plugin

After the plugin has been installed successfully, add the following lines to your `_config.yml` in order to tell Jekyll to use the plugin:
