Core Workflow

1. Add New Project

Steps:
  1. Gather info: name, description, category, image, year (both languages)
  2. Update messages/zh-TW.json → projects.items[]
  3. Update messages/en.json → projects.items[]
  4. Add image to public/images/projects/ (< 500KB, optimized)
  5. Verify: keys match, paths identical
  6. Test: npm run dev → check both /zh-TW/projects and /en/projects
  7. Commit: "feat: add [project name]"

Example:

// messages/zh-TW.json
{
  "projects": {
    "items": [
      {
        "title": "Duotopia 多鄰國風格學習平台",
        "description": "仿照 Duolingo 的遊戲化學習平台",
        "category": "教育科技",
        "image": "/images/projects/duotopia-banner.jpg",
        "year": "2024"
      }
    ]
  }
}

// messages/en.json (mirror structure)
{
  "projects": {
    "items": [
      {
        "title": "Duotopia - Gamified Learning Platform",
        "description": "A Duolingo-inspired gamified learning platform",
        "category": "EdTech",
        "image": "/images/projects/duotopia-banner.jpg",
        "year": "2024"
      }
    ]
  }
}

2. Add Speaking Event

Steps:
  1. Gather: name, date, location, description, type, image (both languages)
  2. Update speaking.events[] in both translation files
  3. Add slug to app/[locale]/speaking/[slug]/page.tsx validSlugs array
  4. Add image to public/images/speaking/
  5. Test: list page + detail page (both languages)
  6. Commit: "feat: add [event name] speaking event"

3. Update About/Services Content

Steps:
  1. Identify section: about.hero, about.intro, services.consulting, etc.
  2. Update both zh-TW.json and en.json
  3. Test: /zh-TW/about and /en/about
  4. Commit: "docs: update [section] content"

Translation Guidelines

Terminology Consistency

教育科技 = EdTech
企業內訓 = Corporate Training
工作坊 = Workshop
演講 = Talk/Speech
顧問服務 = Consulting Services

Tone Standards

• zh-TW: 專業但親和 (Professional yet approachable)
• en: Professional and clear

Image Optimization

Requirements:
  - File size: < 500KB
  - Format: JPEG (photos, 80-85% quality), PNG (logos/graphics)
  - Dimensions: Max 1920px width, min 800px width
  - Naming: Descriptive (duotopia-banner.jpg, not IMG_1234.jpg)
  - Aspect ratio: 16:9 or 4:3

Validation Checklist

Before committing:

Content:
- [ ] zh-TW translation complete
- [ ] en translation complete
- [ ] Keys match exactly in both files
- [ ] Image paths identical

Images:
- [ ] Optimized (< 500KB)
- [ ] Correct directory (public/images/[type]/)
- [ ] Paths match translation files

Testing:
- [ ] npm run dev successful
- [ ] zh-TW page displays correctly
- [ ] en page displays correctly
- [ ] Language switcher works
- [ ] Images load properly
- [ ] Mobile responsive
- [ ] npm run build passes

Deployment:
- [ ] Clear commit message
- [ ] Push to main (auto-deploys to Vercel)

Common Scenarios

Quick Text Fix

User: "修改關於頁面的自我介紹"
→ Read both translation files
→ Update zh-TW intro
→ Update en intro (ask user or translate)
→ Test both languages
→ Commit: "docs: update about page intro"

Bulk Project Addition

User: "新增 3 個專案：A, B, C"
→ Gather info for all 3 (batch)
→ Update zh-TW.json (add all 3)
→ Update en.json (add all 3)
→ Add images
→ Test all projects
→ Commit: "feat: add projects A, B, and C"

Image Optimization

User: "專案圖片太大"
→ Identify large images (> 500KB)
→ Optimize (80-85% JPEG quality)
→ Verify paths unchanged
→ Commit: "perf: optimize project images"

Anti-Patterns

❌ Updating Only One Language

// zh-TW.json has new project, en.json missing → English version breaks

❌ Mismatched Image Paths

// zh-TW: "/images/project-banner.jpg"
// en: "/images/projects/banner.jpg" → Image missing in one language

❌ Inconsistent Keys

// zh-TW: projects.list[]
// en: projects.items[] → Translation system breaks
