Emacs Advent Calendar 9: devdocs, code-cells, dREPL, etc.
jit-spell: Alternative to Flyspell which operates asynchronously and checks the entire screen (not just words you just typed). Similar to u/minad's jinx (which is in fact a fork of jit-spell); jinx runs the spell-checker synchronously inside Emacs via a C module, while jit-spell uses an asynchronous subprocess.

How to setup spellchecking in emacs

New package: Auto-Olivetti—automatically turn on olivetti-mode when the window gets wide
Another recent example is my Jinx package, where people suggested that I should rather put the functionality into Ispell or Flyspell. Neither are good places to put the Jinx functionality as a mode. Obviously Jinx is a large enough and self-contained package providing a well-defined feature set. Furthermore its mode of operation is entirely different from both Ispell and Flyspell, so putting it there wouldn't result in much code reuse. It would look more like two packages cramped into one. Sometimes clean alternative implementations are justified.

Is GNU Aspell the best spell checker for emacs on macOS?
Thank you! I tried to get it working, but unfortunately it isn't compatible with MacOS. https://github.com/minad/jinx/issues/82

Emacs-written novel on the German bestseller list
One thing that had improved recently for writing is the appearance of several new spell-checking packages, the most recent and popular one being jinx. Grammar/style checking is still sub-optimal. Not sure if authors rely on such tools or that your Grammar knowledge is such that you don't need it and for really proof-reading you have an editor anyway.

Good Emacs Packages
Jinx is the new kid on the block for spell-checking, and it is the best!

flyspell with hunspell and multiple dictionaries
I can't help you specifically, but have you looked at Jinx by the formidable Daniel Mendler? Jinx lets you use multiple spell-checking backends (hunspell included) with multiple dictionaries—even in the same file. So, for example, I have used German and English dictionaries simultaneously to edit a mixed-language file.

Why does elpaca make emacs startup so much faster?
Wow, interesting that my response is getting down voted. It seems not enough that I give away my work for free. Nevertheless I appreciate support from the community, as other Emacs package developers. The support is actually helpful. To clarify, publishing my configuration would translate into quite a bit of work, requiring separation of private and public bits.

[praise] `jinx` spell checker
Just want to praise a package called jinx, it provides a spell checker for Emacs, which is really fast.
