Spell Checker Extension

A fully functional spell checker for Visual Studio Code that runs directly in your editor!

Features

  • Live Diagnostics: Automatically analyzes the text of your document as you type and underlines words that are not found in the English dictionary.
  • Smart Case Handling: Ignores CamelCase and mixed-case terms so it won't complain about standard code variables like myAwesomeFunction.
  • Quick Fix Suggestions: Provides the top 5 closest corrections for misspelled words right under your cursor! Press Ctrl + . or Cmd + . to see the suggestions.
  • Offline & Private: All spell-checking happens locally on your own machine using a fast Hunspell-compatible dictionary. No internet required!

Installation

  1. Install from the Visual Studio Marketplace.
  2. The extension automatically activates itself when you start typing or when you open a file.

Usage

Simply open any code or document file and type. If you make a typo in plain text (for instance, typing awesomme), it will be underlined. Hover over the word or click and run a Quick Fix to instantly replace it with the correct spelling.

Enjoy fully automated, locally-run spell-checking in VS Code!
