Language
Use Tablyne in English, Portuguese or Spanish.
Tablyne’s interface is fully translated into three languages, and you can switch between them at any time without restarting.
Supported languages
| Language | Label in app |
|---|---|
| Portuguese (Brazil) | Português |
| English | English |
| Spanish | Español |
The translation covers the whole interface — menus, settings, dialogs, the data grid, tooltips and onboarding.
Switching language
There are three places to change the language, and the change applies in real time — the UI re-renders immediately, no restart needed:
- Settings → Language — a list of the three languages; the active one is marked with a ✓. See Settings.
- Appearance menu (top bar) — the languages are listed under a language heading.
- The welcome tour — step 2 (preferences) lets you pick a language during first-run setup.
Your choice is saved locally and restored on the next launch.
How the default is chosen
On the very first launch — before you’ve made a choice — Tablyne picks a language automatically:
- A previously saved choice, if any.
- Otherwise, your operating system language: if it starts with
enyou get English, withesyou get Spanish. - Otherwise it falls back to Portuguese.
Once you choose a language explicitly, that choice takes priority over the OS language on future launches.
Fallback behavior
If a particular string is ever missing from the active language, Tablyne falls back to Portuguese for that string, so you’ll never see an empty label or a raw translation key.
Notes and limitations
- The three languages affect only the interface chrome. Your data, table and attribute names, queries and DynamoDB results are shown verbatim — they aren’t translated.
- Number, date and currency formatting in the license dialog follows your system locale.
- There are currently three languages; more may be added in future releases.
