Because of how coda.io structures documents, I imagine this is quite a ways off. However, having grammarly support would be absolutely amazing. My current workaround is to copy the document out of coda into grammarly, fix things, and then bring the text back into coda (without formatting lost).
Really, any kind of spelling/grammar support would be wonderful.
I too use Grammarly, but to be honest, just basic spell check is something I deeply crave. Isn’t it baked into Chrome? Has the dev team gone out of the way to disable spell-check?
You’re correct that Coda currently disables both the built-in Chrome spellcheck as well as the Grammerly integration. Both caused issues with how our editing component functions and required engineering investment in order to work correctly. We’re looking at adding basic spellcheck support in our next set of feature work. No commitment on date but just know that it’s something we’re actively working on.
Thanks Nigal however the basic spellcheck is on par with Window 97… sorry buddy, but I’ve had to bounce from Coda until you cat integrate with Grammarly or build the equivalent spellcheck at best, google docs. I stupidly spend some time working Coda out, moving over a few docs and invested hours setting things up as I just fell in love with the platform. However I then went to build my first actual doc and nearly shat my pants over the spellcheck. Look forward to you cats having a 2018 spellcheck offering that will honor it’s very own platform.
Basic spellcheck support has been in place for quite a while now.
Grammerly will require a good bit more work and Coda is still growing quite a bit at the moment. We do hear you that this is a wanted feature for sure, we’re just working on building out the product more before committing to the effort investment here.
When growing a product you find that adding features means there is more to account for, and work around, when adding larger changes to the foundational items. It’s easy to build features to the point of hindering future growth too. So our team puts a lot of thought into how they juggle what gets added and when. The order can have a big effect down the line. Efficient ordering of procedures doesn’t always correlate to order of importance.
Yup I agree. Grammarly support or any kind of spell checker would be fantastic!
hope you guys are considering this in the near future.
Nice platfrom btw
yes it is really a great support to have grammarly extension for auto correction of spelling and grammar. when I was working with a news paper writing service I realized the importance of this software that helps me spelling correction specially and also in the productivity.
