Thanks for your interest in the project, Sahil. You are definitely welcome to contribute and this seems a good initial task.

Section Translation is based on the new version of Content Translation (CX3). You can find more details about the set-up in this documentation page. There is also Docker support instructions.

The above should help you to replicate the development environment for the tool to make any changes. If you have any questions with the set-up feel free to ask in the Section Translation talk page.

Hi @Pginer-WMF,
I want to contribute to this task. Can I proceed, as @Sahilgrewalhere has claimed this task one month before ?
If yes, can I make the changes in the master directory ( as these are messages ) ?

Yes @A.Amritesh feel free to work on this.... as I am busy at another projects..
