Summary

English instructional comments remain visible in the C++ Playground despite the user interface being set to Spanish.

Issue Description

Within the C++ Playground lessons, code editor comments and certain instructional text appear in English while the rest of the interface and lesson content are correctly localized to Spanish. This inconsistency occurs across multiple C++ lessons under the “Learn” section.

Environment

Property Value
Application SpikerSoft Learn
Module C++ Playground
Environment Production
Browser Firefox
Operating System Windows 11
Version v2026.06.28e
Device Desktop

Preconditions

User must be logged in and have Spanish selected as the display language.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Log in to the SpikerSoft platform.
  2. Navigate to Learn > C++ Playground.
  3. Open any lesson (e.g., Hola, mundo).
  4. Observe the instructional text and code editor comments.

Expected Result

All instructional text and code comments should appear in Spanish, consistent with the selected language.

Actual Result

Code editor comments remain in English while the rest of the interface and lesson content are localized to Spanish.

Evidence

  • The screenshot shows the lesson Hola, mundo with English comments such as // Send one greeting line to stdout using std::cout under a Spanish interface.
  • The INSTRUCCIONES panel is correctly localized, but the code editor content is not.
  • The right-side Lección Concepts panel also displays English text (“Standard output stream”, “Newline escape sequence”, etc.).

Impact

  • Spanish-speaking users encounter mixed-language content.
  • Learning flow and comprehension are disrupted.
  • Localization consistency across lessons is broken.

Frequency

Always

Reproducibility

100%

Severity

Medium

Notes

Same behavior observed in Python, JavaScript, and C Playground lessons. Occurs across all C++ Playground lessons. No workaround available.

Same shared root cause as #288 — lesson code-template comments are never localized (C++ track). Consolidated into epic #296; engineering support lands in spikersoft-backend PR #36, C++ content fan-out follows under the epic. Closing as a duplicate of #296.
