+twister-html
+============
+
+HTML interface for [Twister](http://twister.net.co).
+To use it, clone this repo under ~/.twister/html like this:
+
+    git clone https://github.com/miguelfreitas/twister-html.git ~/.twister/html
+    
+Localisation
+------------
+
+If you want a localised interface (currently available only for NL, IT, FR and soon RU),
+use the experimental `i18n` branch:
+
+   git checkout i18n
+   
+If you want to translate it in your own language, check [these instructions](#Translations)
+   
+Contribute
+----------
+
+Feel free to fork and send pull requests!
+To make it easier for us to accept your patches, please follow the conventional
+GitHub workflow:
+
+     # after forking, clone your repo
+     rm -rf ~/.twister/html
+     git clone git@github.com:yournickname/twister-html.git ~/.twister/html
+     cd ~/.twister/html
+     # CREATE A NEW BRANCH, specific to the fix you're implementing
+     git checkout -b my-fix
+     # ... make your changes ...
+     # commit and push
+     git commit -m "Fixing #1234 - bad foobarizer" && git push
+     # Now open a pull request from branch my-fix to miguelfreitas:master on github.
+     # Once the request is accepted, switch back to master and track upstream
+     git remote add upstream https://github.com/miguelfreitas/twister-html.git # one-off setup
+     git fetch upstream
+     git checkout master
+     git merge upstream/master # you should get a fast-forward message here
+     git push
+     
+Translations
+------------
+
+If you want to add your own translation, edit `interface_localization.js` like this:
+
+1. fork the repo, checkout `i18n` and create a new branch
+
+     git clone git@github.com:yournickname/twister-html.git ~/.twister/html
+     cd ~/.twister/html
+     git checkout i18n
+     git checkout -b Klingon
+
+2. add your language to the list of available choices. You should use your ISO code here,
+it should match what the browser reports. The Klingon ISO is "tlh", so:
+
+    var knownLanguages = ["en","nl","it","fr","tlh"];
+    
+For multi-region languages, if you want to catch them all, use only the first half 
+(e.g. to match it and it-ch, specify "it").
+
+3. add a new wordset block after  existing ones
+
+    if(preferredLanguage == "tlh"){
+       polyglot.locale("tlh");
+       wordset = {
+          "Insults": "mu'qaD,
+          ....
+        }
+    }
+
+4. commit & push
+
+    git commit -m "Klingon translation"
+    git push   
+ 
+3. When opening the pull request on github, make sure you're pointing to miguelfreitas:i18n 
+as the base, so we can merge it straight away in the right place. For any help, ping @toyg.
