Is there a guide for how mod and tool authors should configure Crowdin somewhere? My experience trying to configure Crowdin for translation has not been smooth, and I imagine I've reinvented a lot of wheels that have been built many times by other people:
- I had to dig around to figure out a way to use a mix of language codes ("de") and locale codes ("zh-TW"). It seems like there should be a better way to configure that.
- I want to support language fallbacking. I couldn't find that in Crowdin directly, so I set skip_untranslated_strings in crowdin-translation-action.yml with the intention of postprocessing the files. But Crowdin deleted all the English texts when I did that.
- I uploaded the existing English texts to fix the previous problem, and Crowdin added double-quotes around a bunch of the values.
- I would like to include context information directly in english.cfg, (or at least in the github repo) but I don't see a way to supply context information through the github action.

Re: Request for Crowdin configuration information
Are you using the community crowdin bot? I set it up for my mods using these instructions and so far it seems to be working.
