As this project has expanded and grown, we have accepted PRs for translations to the tutorial which is great for getting more information out there to more people. And it's awesome we've gotten community support to make that possible!

However, how do we maintain changes to the tutorial for these translations? What do others do with their readmes? Should we add a disclaimer to all of the non English readmes? Should we avoid adding content to the readme to mitigate some of this issue? That has its downsides too. We could auto translate things dynamically but that's what Google Translate can do for you already....

If we can update all readmes when making changes that is ideal, but it does add overhead and slow down our ability to make changes. I don't know the best answer hence why I'm posting this.
