### Language Support
The current application UI is primarily in German.
BearWave currently supports English and German.
- UI labels, dialogs, and user-facing controls are currently mostly German
- README, repository metadata, and development-facing material are in English
- full localization support is not implemented yet
- the application uses the system locale to select its UI language
- English is the base UI language
- German is provided as a bundled translation
- README, repository metadata, and development-facing material remain in English
If you expect a fully translated multi-language UI, that is not the current state yet.
If the system language is German, BearWave appears in German. Otherwise it falls back to English.
