No cap! The Problem ----------- [](#the-problem) The TYPO3 backend is professional, functional and... boring. Where's the rizz? Where's the aura? Why does it say "Delete" instead of "Yeet"? Why "Cancel" instead of "Nvm bestie"? And why does it say "Disabled" when "Ghosted" hits so much harder? This extension fixes that problem once and for all. Fr fr. What it does ------------ [](#what-it-does) - Registers the new locale `en-X-GNZ` as a standalone backend language - Overrides 7,000+ labels from all 35 system extensions - Uses `en` (English) as fallback if a label is not translated - English date formats are preserved (BCP 47 private-use subtag based on `en`) - The original English language remains completely untouched Highlights ---------- [](#highlights) BeforeAfterOKSlay!YesBet!NoNah famCancelNvm bestieDeleteYeet itEditGlow upSave and closeSave and dipSearchStalkLoginSlide inLogoutPeace outEnabledIt's giving activeDisabledGhostedPrintPrint on dead treesMoreGive me more bestiePlease confirmYou sure about this fr fr?ErrorOof, big LSuccessW, aura +100!WarningRed flag!StandardMidAdminSigma AdminUser groupsThe squadHistoryCaught in 4KInstallation ------------ [](#installation) ``` composer req bmack/gen-z ``` Alternatively, copy the `gen_z` folder to `typo3conf/ext/` and activate it in the Extension Manager. Setup ----- [](#setup) 1. Activate the extension 2. In the backend under **User Settings → Language** select the new language **"Gen Z Speak"** 3. Slay! Compatibility ------------- [](#compatibility) TYPO3PHPStatus14.x8.2+SlayTechnical Details ----------------- [](#technical-details) The extension uses TYPO3's built-in `resourceOverrides` mechanism to overlay custom XLF files for the `en-X-GNZ` locale over the original labels. The locale key follows the BCP 47 standard with a private-use subtag (`x-gnz`), based on `en` (English). This means `IntlDateFormatter` and other ICU-based functions work correctly with English formats. The fallback chain is: `en-X-GNZ` → `en`. License ------- [](#license) GPL-2.0-or-later.
