Language Tool offers a public version to use. Yet, the SpellCheck-Plugin will work fastest when you use your own local LanguageTool-Server.
For Installation:
- Download: https://www.languagetool.org/download/
- Install LanguageTool as shown here: https://dev.languagetool.org/http-server
(Please note: "For security reasons, the server will not be accessible from other hosts. If you want to run a server for remote users you will need to use the --public option.") - If your server runs an SSD hard disk, we recommend downloading, configuring and using ngrams for languageTool as shown here:
