RIDE is an IDE (Integrated Development Environment) exclusive for Robot Framework tests or tasks automation framework.
Robot Framework supports, since version 6.1, files with localized definitions. RIDE was updated to accept those files, and we are working on a localization project to have its GUI in the same languages supported by Robot Framework.
You can help in this localization project at Crowdin

We have a RIDE section topic in Tools>RIDE.
