proselint is a linter for prose. A linter is a computer program that, like a
|
|
spell checker, scans through a document and analyzes it.
|
|
|
|
proselint places the world's greatest writers and editors by your side, where
|
|
they whisper suggestions on how to improve your prose. You'll be guided by
|
|
advice inspired by Bryan Garner, David Foster Wallace, Chuck Palahniuk, Steve
|
|
Pinker, Mary Norris, Mark Twain, Elmore Leonard, George Orwell, Matthew
|
|
Butterick, William Strunk, E.B. White, Philip Corbett, Ernest Gowers, and the
|
|
editorial staff of the world's finest literary magazines and newspapers, among
|
|
others. Our goal is to aggregate knowledge about best practices in writing and
|
|
to make that knowledge immediately accessible to all authors in the form of a
|
|
linter for prose.
|
|
|
|
proselint is a command-line utility that can be integrated into existing tools.
