LEMS Localization

This has been discussed as part of the growing initiative to bring LEMS outside of Israel. Localization includes all aspects of supporting events in a different location.

What needs to be done?

Let's split up the tasks into categories:

Language support

LEMS needs to be able to display its UI in any language. We are considering using globalize for this but other libraries are a welcome suggestion.

• Pick and install locale management library
• Move every single text in Hebrew to an he_il file and use references to that file in the current code
• Add other locale files
• Implement a switcher to easily switch between locales

Location support

• Allow users to select the timezone that LEMS will generate schedules in
• Support for changing the date of events after creation

Event format support

• Allow support for multi-day event schedules, as well as additional customization options that still need to be discussed
