grammar-guard.nvim VS ltex-ls

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!

ltex-ls is huge. I have following setup in Neovim which works excellent. (I use Neovim only as scratchpad)

Hi, folks! There is great language server that provides spell checking for markdown and LTeX files using language tool called ltex-ls. By default there is no ability to use code code actions like Add to dictionary, Hide false positive, and Disable rule in NeoVim since those handlers should be implemented on the client side. So I created a simple plugin to add handlers to those actions and load already saved information on initialization of the server. I had no time to extensively test it yet, but it seems working for me just fine.

I am currently using https://github.com/valentjn/ltex-ls and it is a decent step up.

Nice! I have longed for a rust implementation of ltex-ls.

You can use ltex-ls with an LSP client. It looks like FOSS.

I didn't know about LTEX. It seems like a good option! I will try and the do a comparison of the two. LTeX uses MPL-2.0 license. Which is usually prefered by LaTeX users over Grammarly' proprietary software. How is the CPU usage with LTeX and how has been your experience with it?

Story time: I really love Neovim for programming, but one thing I love it even more for is scientific writing. Tools like texlab make this especially fun! But for a well-rounded experience, I need a few more things: (i) Grammar checking. For that I can recommend ltex, an LSP-server which adds LaTeX support to language tool. (ii) Thesaurus lookup. (Neo)vims integrated thesaurus format is a little bit limited. But thankfully 'thesaurusfunc' exists so I could easily write a small plugin to add support for openoffice.org mythes thesauri. (iii) Machine translation. Now we're finally getting to the topic of this post. I write most of my stuff in English but I'm not a native speaker, so machine translation is valuable for me. It can help me to overcome writers block to an extent, for example. There already exist a few plugins for that problem, like vim-translator or translate.nvim. But none of these support interactive modes, a slick UI, and, as far as I know, useful things like motions and counts. This is where my plugin pantran.nvim comes into place! The demo should speak for itself. In the end it was a lot more effort than I anticipated but I'm very pleased with the result. I hope this can be useful to others as well!
