This is a free and open-source style and grammar checker forked from Languagetool.

This project intends to be a full-blown software editor for French, English, German,
Spanish, Portuguese and many other languages that enhances LanguageTool with
extended rules — with emphasis on style rules —, and enables many rules disabled
by default on LanguageTool project.

Other changes include lower reliance on online mechanisms and extra languages.
