Vale 🐝

Vale is open source, command line tool, that checks your writing ✏️ against editorial style guides. Game changer. Vale, introduced by a peer and 💥 love it, some tend to write fast and try to get thoughts out quickly. But, then Vale comes in and helps get the writing consistent and clean 🫧.

Linting 🖋️

Think of it as linting for writing. Maybe that's not the right analogy, but the appeal is for a DevSecOps Engineer coding a website, blog post, and in the arena that's very comfortable quickly run:

1

vale {path/to/posts/post.md}

and get instant feedback on spelling, grammar, and style improvements. Here is a snapshot in real time against this very blog post:

Nice one Vale. Appreciate the feedback 🙏🏽.

Conclusion 🔚

In short Vale allows separation of the composition of a post and the editing of a post. It's a great tool to have in the toolbox 🧰.

Vale has been improving the writing and consistency of posts, and to that end, all aboard 🚂. Hope you find it useful too 🚀.
