## Description

This project provides a comprehensive style guide and automated framework for standardizing Chinese typography and technical writing. It establishes a formal set of rules for formatting, spacing, and punctuation, ensuring that mixed-language content maintains professional consistency and visual clarity.

The tool distinguishes itself by enforcing specific typographic standards, such as normalizing character widths, managing mixed-language spacing, and standardizing quotation marks and punctuation. It utilizes a deterministic processing pipeline to apply these rules across documentation and source files, ensuring that terminology, capitalization, and formatting remain uniform regardless of the language or locale.

Beyond basic formatting, the project supports multilingual content localization by mapping documentation to specific locale codes. This allows for the application of language-appropriate typography and terminology standards, facilitating clear and consistent communication across international project channels.
