This blog's markdown is powered by Markdoc. In addition to supporting all basic markdown syntax, this blog also supports extended syntax to render custom components that are not conventionally available via basic markdown. This post is an example to showcase all available extended markdown syntax.
Sometimes you need fillers for rhythm, sometimes because you like them, and sometimes you really need them. Style check doesn’t want to delete everything it highlights. It wants to make you think and reconsider if what you said is what you meant.
Crucially, no deletions occur unless you choose to do them. Nothing is ever automatically removed and no content is sent to an internet service for review. Style Check is designed to keep your texts private. All processing is done directly on your devices.
Being clear, concise and reducing things to their essence are core principles at iA. Our apps are built with these ideas in mind. It happens that good writing follows the same principles. Cut the fat. Remove the fluff. Style Check improves your text by distilling it into a concentrated, more potent form. We’ve been using Style Check internally for the last couple of months and it has exceeded our expectations.
It’s not like any of the existing grammar checkers or functions. There is no AI, it is not smarter than you, and it doesn’t steal your texts. It makes you think about what you say. And yet it can improve your writing instantaneously. Let’s take a closer look at the individual categories of Style Check.
- basically
- pretty much
- sort of
- oh yeah
For context
But how, you might ask
“After 20 years of writing in basically a vacuum, I love being part of a community. I’ve vetted other writers’ contracts for them and do publicity for free just because I like a book. Some people think of it as hubris or careerism, but I love to champion books. You can’t use your whole sphere of influence just to help yourself.“
– Jonathan Evison
