There is another plugin called grammar-nazi, it might be what you're looking for.

Snapperito commented 3 years ago

iirc, grammar nazi doesnt autocomplete, and kable isn't planning on adding any new features. Although, if someone were to take this request a pr to it could be nice.

There is value in Grammarly's functionality specifically, but, there is no developer API, even for premium users. There is this https://github.com/stewartmcgown/grammarly-api, but this is more a play tool since it doesn't have a way to externally fetch user tokens, and you'll probably run into request security without forking the library to use powercord/http. Perhaps you could load up the extension window on a webview or a hidden electron popup? Not sure if this would be possible.

If you're able to find a free API somewhere that provides similar enhanced grammar checking run it by on the Powercord Discord to see if moderation approves, if not you'll either have to PR a proxy for it into powercord-backend or find a more secure/reliable API.

Either way, it should all compound on the existing plugin (grammar nazi), and there should be an option to keep logic completely local. (what it currently has) So maybe this can get moved to an issue on that repo? Maybe not for now though since Kable is only planning on keeping it on life support.

(hypothetical "you" as there isn't someone whose claimed it currently)

I've seen this API online being compared to Grammarly's. Not sure if it could be used but just leaving it here in case.

There already is an Plugin for BetterDiscord which at least corrects spelling mistakes.(https://github.com/mwittrien/BetterDiscordAddons/tree/master/Plugins/SpellCheck/)

Sadly this plugin does not work when being ported to PC by using several tools. Therefore manually coding a port of that plugin would be awesome! :>

MulverineX commented 2 years ago

@MrZeroLord that's the same as Grammar Nazi; it doesn't use any external APIs and is therefore static. If there are features and/or languages missing then those can be PR'd in/be in a fork, rather than porting a Devilbro plugin.

Grammarly released a new app that will work anywhere on your desktop (including Discord).

This desktop app has been out since November 15, 2021. It's a good temporary solution but still doesn't feel like an integrated experience (which I think people here want). One of its biggest downfalls is how slow it is at detecting mistakes compared to the web/google docs version.
