## Description

DockerDesktop-CN is a localization pack and binary resource patcher designed to convert the Docker Desktop user interface into Chinese. It provides a collection of translated resource files and binary patches to modify the display language for users on Windows and macOS.

The project utilizes binary resource patching and segment injection to substitute hardcoded English strings within application binaries. It employs file system-based resource overlays and static asset replacement to overwrite default software resources with localized versions.

To ensure a consistent experience across different desktop operating systems, the tool uses cross-platform asset mapping and directory-specific resource mapping to align translation files with the installation paths of each OS.
