## Translations
This documents the convention used for the text in the UI.
### Title Case
All words are capitalized.
In title case, articles (a/an/the) ,conjunctions (and/but/or/...) and prepositions (on/at/...)
inside a phrase are not capitalized.
Everything else is capitalized - noun, pronoun, verb, adverb.
Examples:
* "Sign In to Your Account"
* "Terms and Conditions"
* "Getting Started with GraphQL"
* "Between You and Me"
### Sentence case
Only first word is capitalized.

Hints in brackets are small case. Like "(comma separated)".
## Full stops
Sentence fragments like form hints and tooltips (which are always visible) do not need a full stop.
All other full sentences do.
description has a full stop unless it's a hint/phrase.
Checkbox labels do not have a full stop at the end
