Notebook: Jupyter does not work with Grammerly

[jeffheaton]

I've been using www.grammarly.com, which is a popular spelling and grammar checker. It would be really nice if Jupyter supported this in the markdown cells. In this case, I am using the Grammarly Chrome extension. It works in nearly any web input box I've worked with, even the GitHub issue editor that I am using to type this.

Not sure what you want more in the way of details. Installing the free version of Grammarly and attempting to use it on a markdown editor will show this problem.

Not sure for Grammar checker but for spell checker you could enable spellchecker from Nbextensions.
You can find the blog to enable spellchecker from this site:

@aishrock006 Yes I know about that.

The spellchecker available as an nbextension is too bare-bones compared to Grammarly. Although I'm not sure the problem of incompatibility should be solved by Jupyter rather than by Grammarly.

Adding Grammarly to Jupiter will be very helpful.

Hi, is there any further update on this?

[kevin-bates]

@an5ir - no update. I agree this would be a nice feature, but it will likely need to be contributed by the community due to a lack of active maintainers. I would also recommend focusing this effort in JupyterLab - which will also provide better development support.

Most apps support Grammarly out of the box. Probably it is good to look at what in the Jupyter notebook is non-standard in a way that breaks Grammarly. The root cause probably has other issues as well. Even this comment that I am now typing into GitHub is working just fine in Grammarly. It is usually not an issue.
