Wtf does this do

This repository is a personal portfolio of translated works by Changkun Ou, a translator who bridges language barriers between Chinese, English, and German. It is essentially a curated catalog of articles, technical documentation, and book chapters that have been translated or proofread into Chinese, making technical and design content accessible to Chinese-speaking readers who may not read the original languages comfortably. The collection spans a wide range of topics, with a heavy emphasis on machine learning and deep learning. A large portion of the work involves translating TensorFlow's official documentation into Chinese, covering tutorials on convolutional neural networks, recurrent neural networks, image recognition, audio recognition, and mobile optimization. Beyond machine learning, the portfolio includes translations of articles on user experience design, front-end development, iOS development, and Go programming. The translator also contributed to a German-to-Chinese book translation on human-computer interaction, and worked on Swift programming language documentation. The audience for this repo would primarily be Chinese-speaking developers, designers, and students looking for technical resources in their native language. For example, a Chinese-speaking developer wanting to learn TensorFlow without reading English documentation could find a translated version here. Similarly, a UX designer curious about articles on dark patterns in notifications or designing for mobile forms could read those in Chinese through these translations. The translator's role is noted as either translator or proofreader for each entry. Most of the translations are published through collaborative open-source translation communities like the "gold-miner" project and "tensorflow-docs" Chinese localization effort. The translated works are licensed under CC-BY-NC-ND-4.0, meaning they can be shared with attribution but not used commercially or modified. The translator also accepts new translation work and provides contact information for inquiries, suggesting this portfolio doubles as a professional showcase for translation services.
