# Language and developer mode

Two settings in CloudRaker are **yours**, not your organization's: the interface **language** and **developer mode**. Both live in the profile menu. Click your avatar at the bottom of the sidebar to open it. Both settings are saved to your user preferences. They follow you across sessions and devices.

These are personal preferences, not admin settings. Every user has them, regardless of role. They change only what *you* see.

## Language

CloudRaker ships in two languages: **English** and **Français (Canada)**. English is the default.

#### Open your profile menu

Click your avatar at the bottom of the sidebar. It shows your name and email.

#### Open the Language submenu

Click **Language**.

#### Pick a language

Choose **English** or **Français (Canada)**. Each option shows in its own language. The interface switches immediately. The app keeps your choice for your next sign-in, on any device.

## Developer mode

**Developer mode** is off by default. When it is on, CloudRaker shows technical metadata that is normally hidden. This includes raw IDs, slugs, configuration JSON, the JSON config editor, and run plumbing on actions, files, runs, and data.

To turn it on, open your profile menu and turn on the **Developer mode** switch.

Developer mode does not change your permissions or what you can do. It only shows more detail.

Developer mode shows the IDs and raw configuration that you pass to the API. See the [Developers](/paperwork/developers/overview) tab.
