  I can see in the CP (craft 3) that my **sections** have a 'translatable' icon but I don't find anywhere in the UI to translate section names.

  I haven't found how to do it through the UI but it's possible to add the section names in translation files as keys and then translate them in the views using `{{ "key_name" | translate }}`.
  
  You must follow [this example](https://craftcms.com/support/static-translations) but keeping in mind the `translations` folder [changed its location and structure from Craft 2 to Craft 3](https://github.com/craftcms/docs/blob/master/en/upgrade.md#static-translation-files).
  
  You have to place it right under your project directory:
  
  ```
  yourProject
  |--templates
  |--translations/
  |---en/
  |-----site.php
  |---es/
  |-----site.php
  |--vendor
  
  ```
