Harper - A free, open source alternative to Grammarly
This blog post discusses the author's switch from Grammarly to Harper, a free open-source grammar and style checker. The author highlights Harper's local processing, privacy features, and speed as key advantages over Grammarly. Harper operates on-device, ensuring data never leaves the user's machine, and offers a transparent rule system for error detection. It also provides customizable settings and a local dictionary feature for specialized vocabulary. While Harper lacks some advanced features found in Grammarly, it offers a reliable and privacy-focused alternative for those seeking a free grammar checker.
This free and open source spell checker runs locally on your machine or in-app (like Obsidian, Browser Extension, etc.).
