// the take
A static Sphinx-built site with Chinese translations of Go standard library documentation, covering a subset of packages like sync, errors, database/sql, and container/heap. Useful for Chinese-speaking developers who want reference docs in their own language rather than English godoc.
Built with Sphinx so you get a working search index (searchindex.js) and cross-referenced pages out of the box, not just a pile of markdown files. Deploys as a plain static site with no backend (just .nojekyll and a CNAME), so hosting it is trivial. The translations that exist are for packages people actually use daily (sync, errors, testing, database/sql), not obscure corners.
Last pushed in 2017 — it predates Go modules, generics, and nearly a decade of stdlib additions (slices, maps, cmp, errors.Is/As/Join, etc.), so as a reference it's dangerously out of date rather than just incomplete. The repo only ships the generated HTML output, not the translation source files, so there's no obvious path to update or extend it without reverse-engineering the Sphinx project structure from the Makefile. Coverage is thin even for 2017-era Go — the directory listing shows barely a dozen packages translated out of the full standard library. No commits in 8+ years means any translation errors or broken links are permanent.
