Language Versions

I've implemented a language version feature, ready to support additional languages at any time, based on URL modification. Importantly, this solution does not rely on cookies or sessions commonly used in such cases. Currently, besides English, there is a Polish version accessible through the /pl modifier.

For better programming practices, I've placed this modifier at the end of the URL, contrary to the usual convention (e.g., /projects becomes /projekty/pl).

At any given moment, the system is aware of the connections between parent and child, as well as child and parent. If a user adds the language modifier to the URL, the system checks for its corresponding connection and redirects the user to the language version of the current view.

This ensures that each page can have its own slug. When the system doesn't recognize the language's child, it reverts to its parent.

For example:

/projekty/pl opens the Portfolio page in Polish. If the modifier is removed, /projekty automatically redirects to /projects.

The same mechanism works in reverse. If /projects is provided with the language modifier, it automatically redirects to /projekty/pl.

Another example

/about <=> /o-mnie

/about/pl redirects to /o-mnie/pl, while /o-mnie alone (without the language modifier) redirects to /about.
