You can enhance your text editor in by enabling spell check. When you right-click in the editor window, select the spell check option from the menu. This way, you leverage your native browser to create and update content without spelling errors in your text editor. This functionality is supported in Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge browsers. Each browser has its own way of enabling spell check and adding new languages, so you should reference each browser's knowledge page for additional guidance.
