it's great that Passy can be translated (I'm just doing a translation to German).
I find that l10n is one of the fields where non-programmers can contribute a lot to their favorite projects (and therefore give something back).
However, I find the current mode of contributing a translation rather appalling (well, not really; i am a programmer. but) For a simple user of the software, cloning a repository, editing some JSON file and then creating a PR is way beyond the average capabilities.
For other projects I find that weblate provides a webinterface that helps people contributing to translations in a very intuitive way.
while i usually work with gettext, it seems that ARB is supported as well.

actually i just noticed that the proposed workflow is to upload the JSON file to https://gist.github.com/ (rather than go through a PR), but nevertheless...
As mentioned in the translation readme, cloning is not necessary, one can simply download the l10n file, edit it and then upload it as a gist or a pastebin link and I'll create a pull for it myself.
Weblate looks promising, I will look into setting up a weblate server for GlitterWare.
