grammar-guard.nvim VS languagetool

Neat post! I like to throw in angry-reviewer and grammar-guard.

Something like grammar-guard, proselint and/or language-tool?

Hi, it seems that the ltex-ls will not have this features added https://github.com/neovim/nvim-lspconfig/issues/1443, but there is no plugin available to do it, grammar-guard has stalled.

I am actually writing a blog post on almost this exact topic! Ltex-ls https://github.com/neovim/nvim-lspconfig/blob/master/doc/server_configurations.md#ltex is not fully integrated yet, add to dictionary doesn't do anything! You can add manually for now in the setup, for example: lua require('lspconfig').ltex.setup { settings = { ltex = { disabledRules = { ['en-US'] = { 'PROFANITY' } }, dictionary = { ['en-US'] = { 'Deno', 'Neovim', 'ltex-ls' } }, }, }, } The above disables a rule, and adds some words to the dictionary. Adding these rules manually is not ideal, but using ltex-ls in Neovim is new and the ability to do these things automatically has not yet been added. Keep an eye on grammar-guard.nvim for these features being added.

I made a plugin that checks your grammar while you're writing LaTeX or Markdown Documents!

Great tool, thanks for sharing. If you are open to suggestions, I would love to have spellcheck in it.

I don't know of a "global" function, but what you use depends largely on where you're doing your writing. It's possible to spellcheck markdown and html files from a terminal with aspell and to find the correct spelling of partial words with look. Some apps, like Grammarcheck can offer you close to global spellcheck. Apps like LanguageTool offer browser addons to check grammar and spelling.

Proofread for spelling, grammar, and punctuation errors (Grammarly, Hemingway Editor, LanguageTool),

Please re-read the wiki thoroughly, line-by-line, format your resume to the wiki guidelines, verify that each of your bullet points begin with a strong action verb and follow the STAR (Situation, Task, Action, and Result) or XYZ (Accomplished D as Measured by Y, by Doing Z) methods, proofread, revise, and repost your resume.

LanguageTool - I liked using Grammarly to check my writing, but it is not great for privacy considering it sends off everything you write to Grammarly servers. LanguageTool is a great open source alternative that you can run locally.

On extensions, for example, I use LanguageTool [1], which is similar to Grammarly. It could be configured with a local server, although I have a “premium” account which sends data to a 3rd party server. I trust this extension to verify my messages on HN, but I can't trust it to have access to my banking account. This is an example of a really useful extension that I'll never be able to fully trust because it has access to all websites, and it sends all that I write to another server.

In fairness, Firefox's advantage has been that Mozilla has a trustworthy manual review process for the “recommended” extensions.
