      Language Tool is a Grammar, Style and Spell Checker. LanguageTool checks your writing in more than 20 languages.

      See: https://languagetool.org/

      You can run it from your server directly, instructions: https://dev.languagetool.org/http-server

      And there are two docker implementations listed in their doc:

          That would be one of the coolest app on Cloudron. I pay for the premium version.
          On the other hand it is ok to pay for good software 🙂

              I use the free extension and it's already very good, but I'd prefer it wouldn't send a server everything I write.

                So it makes absolutely sense to host it yourself with cloudron.

                  Wow this would be pretty cool. At one point it had a thunderbird extension. But it looks like it suffered from Mozilla's moved to web-extensions

                    @ruihildt indeed very cool
                    Just deployed languagetool on a Coolify instance, and it's very nice.

                    Dockerfile doesn't seem too complex, but some pieces I am not sure how to handle for custom package.

                      @timconsidine Is this entirely selfhosted ? And any instructions on how to deploy to coolify?

                        @girish yes, seems to be entirely self-hosted.
                        There is no landing page or app front page.
                        You get an error if you try to access the URL.
                        It just needs to be running, and then typically in the settings of a browser extension (under Advanced) you can specify your custom url (in form of https://app.domain.tld/v2)

                        LanguageTool is one of the built-in "services", as they call their packaged apps. Terminology a little strange, but hey ho.

                        So really it is just a question of :

                        • installing Coolify (which has nice easy install script),
                        • setting up the FQDN for Coolify,
                        • specifying a "destination" (docker)
                        • selecting the Services link in the left sidebar
                        • press the + button and choosing LanguageTool
                        • select the 'destination' (docker), fill in the blanks including the URL for the 'service'
                        • remember to actually start it ! (doesn't auto-start on installation)

                        That's all that's needed from memory.
                        I can reinstall the service if you need 💯 % certainty of steps.

                        Coolify is interesting, but quite sparse in terms of apps.
                        Not a patch on Cloudron.
                        Seems more angled to deploying own written apps.
                        Links to Github nicely to pull repo, but I can't get my Cloudron Gitlab linked.

                          Notable feature of this is that the self-hosted version doesn't have the same character-limit as the free Basic SaaS server.

                          Well worth having here for that liberation alone IMHO.

                          I pay for Premium too, but to introduce that to a large team could be costly, and this would be a noble alternative to make sure they are checking spelling and grammar on longer documents with the Browser extension installed.

                          Also worth noting, it works very well with native integration in LibreOffice 7.4+.

                          We're not here for a long time - but we are here for a good time :)

                            I'm using this (Language Tool) on a Yunohost instance, and it is super handy!

                              I am also a paying customer but would like to offer it to my family also. It works in German perfectly.

                                @wirkaholic yeah, no wonder, it's an app from a German team 😄
                                I've been in contact with them about an android app - since we only use android in the company, I'd never ever pay a single cent to apple...

                                  Interesting. Coolify supports Svelte, which is regarded as a next technology:
