## What it is
A VS Code extension that brings Grammarly-powered grammar and spelling checking into the editor via a Language Server Protocol implementation on top of Grammarly's SDK. It supports multiple languages through tree-sitter grammars and rich-text encoders.

## Use cases
- check grammar in markdown files while writing in VS Code
- get Grammarly suggestions without leaving the editor
- proofread documentation and blog posts inside VS Code
- add grammar checking support for a new file type
- run a language server for grammar checking

## When to choose
- you write prose, docs, or markdown in VS Code and want inline grammar feedback
- you want Grammarly integration without switching to a browser or desktop app
- you need an LSP-based grammar checker you can extend to new languages

## When to avoid
- you don't use VS Code or an LSP-compatible editor
- you need offline grammar checking since it depends on Grammarly's SDK
- you require actively developed features; the project is in maintenance mode
