 ## Uploading the stubs to pypi
 
-The upload of the stubs to https://pypi.org/project/mobase-stubs/ has to be done manually. Here

-
-1. Check the version of the stubs:
-  - The version is specified in the configuration file. If you need to modify the stubs of the
-    current version, you need to add a `.postX` after the version since PyPi does not allow
-    re-upload of the same release.
-2. Generate the stubs using the procedure above. You should generate the stubs under `stubs/setup/mobase-stubs/__init__.pyi`.
-3. If necessary, update the dependencies in `setup.py` (`PyQt5-stubs` version and python version).
-4. Go to `stubs/setup` and run:
-
-```bash
-python setup.py sdist bdist_wheel
-twine upload dist/*
-```
-
-You need to set the environment variables `TWINE_USERNAME` and `TWINE_PASSWORD` to appropriate values
-before running `twine upload`.
+The upload of the stubs to https://pypi.org/project/mobase-stubs/ should be
+done automatically when a new Github release is made.

+
+Internationalization
+--------------------
+
+If you plan to distribute your plugin, it is often a good idea to provide translations for it.
+
+Adding translation code
+.......................
+
+Mod Organizer uses Qt translation system, so you need to adapt your plugin code to provide
+translation strings.
+To do this, you need two things:
+
+1. In every class containing strings you need to translate, you must add a ``__tr`` function
+   that takes a ``str`` input and call `QApplication.translate` on it (see example below).
+2. You need to wrap all translatable strings in a call to ``self.__str("My String")`` (see
+   example below).
+
+.. code:: python
+
+    from PyQt5.QtWidgets import QApplication
+
+    class MyPlugin(...):
+
+        def localizedName(self) -> str:
+            # Use self.__tr to wrap string you want translatable.
+            return self.__tr("My Plugin Name")
+
+        def __tr(self, txt: str) -> str:
+            # The first argument must EXACTLY match the class name:
+            return QApplication.translate("MyPlugin", txt)
+
+Generating Qt translation files
+...............................
+
+Once your code is updated, you need to generate the Qt translation file ``.ts``.
+You can use ``PyQt5.lupdate_main`` for this:
+
+.. code:: bash
+
+    PyQt5.lupdate_main mysourcefile.py -ts mysourcefile.ts
+
+You should generate a single translation file for your whole plugin even if it contains
+multiple files by passing all Python file and Qt UI (``.ui``) file to the command above.
+
+Translating
+...........
+
+Now that you have the original ``.ts`` file, you need to translate it in order to obtain
+translation files for other languages.
+To do so, you can use online services such as `Transifex <https://www.transifex.com>`_ or
+simply Qt Linguistic tools.
+
+Distributing translations
+.........................
+
+Once you have obtained translation files for another language, e.g. French, you need to
+compile it into a ``.qm`` file and then ship it.
+
+- If you are using a single Python file plugin ``myplugin.py``, the name of the compiled
+  translation must be ``myplugin_fr.qm``.
+- If you are shipping a module ``mymoduleplugin``, the name of the compiled translation
+  must be ``mymoduleplugin``.
