# Translate your site
Let's translate `docs/intro.md` to French.
## Configure i18n
Modify `docusaurus.config.js` to add support for the `fr` locale:
```js title="docusaurus.config.js"
module.exports = {
i18n: {
defaultLocale: 'en',
locales: ['en', 'fr'],
},
};
```
## Translate a doc
Copy the `docs/intro.md` file to the `i18n/fr` folder:
```bash
mkdir -p i18n/fr/docusaurus-plugin-content-docs/current/
cp docs/intro.md i18n/fr/docusaurus-plugin-content-docs/current/intro.md
```
Translate `i18n/fr/docusaurus-plugin-content-docs/current/intro.md` in French.
## Start your localized site
Start your site on the French locale:
```bash
npm run start -- --locale fr
```
Your localized site is accessible at [http://localhost:3000/fr/](http://localhost:3000/fr/) and the `Getting Started` page is translated.
:::caution
In development, you can only use one locale at a same time.

## Add a Locale Dropdown
To navigate seamlessly across languages, add a locale dropdown.
Modify the `docusaurus.config.js` file:
```js title="docusaurus.config.js"
module.exports = {
themeConfig: {
navbar: {
items: [
// highlight-start
{
type: 'localeDropdown',
},
// highlight-end
],
},
},
};
```
The locale dropdown now appears in your navbar:
![Locale Dropdown](./img/localeDropdown.png)
## Build your localized site
Build your site for a specific locale:
```bash
npm run build -- --locale fr
```
Or build your site to include all the locales at once:
```bash
npm run build
```
