- Rated 5 out of 5by Mesut, 9 years agoIs this extension send text to ge languagetool.org servers for checking?
Developer response
posted 9 years agoBy default, yes. The description of the add-on explains this, but it got somehow removed. I've added it again. - Rated 5 out of 5by demonicpancake, 9 years agoGreat! If you don't like sending your data to a third party network you can use this add on with a locally hosted instance on your computer or on a private network.
I simply run language tool from the command line like this:
languagetool --http --allow-origin "*"
default port is 8081 but you can specify another one by adding this : --port 666
then in the add on preferences simply change the LanguageTool API Server URL to:
http://localhost:8081/v2/ - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 6588308, 9 years agoLanguageTool is a very useful spell- and grammar checker. It is easy to use and open source. A must have if you want to write in a language that is not 100% in your grasp.
