I’m not a PHP dev, so I can’t say much of the technical side of the project. What I think looks amazing is the level of detail to the documentation and readme. Congrats!
Hello HN community,
You've been an immense part of my career without knowing it. You're the reason why I'm still passionate about programming and can live comfortably as a senior developer. I'm having fun sharing all the online knowledge you taught me with my not-so-passionate coworkers. They appreciate it and it is all thanks to you. I keep believing PHP ecosystem is going strong and it has a bright future ahead.
I would like to take the time to give back through my modest contribution.
I identified an unfulfilled need while I was being frustrated of not finding a reliable (at least according to my standards) library to do spellchecking easily from PHP.
I decided it would be a good candidate to finally achieved my goal. I though it would be a matter of 3-4 weeks of work.
It took me 11 months, not of actual work though. But it was hard. I felt alone, overwhelmed, being too perfectionist, not confident on the real world usage and at some point real life caught up.
Eventually I made the last final push at the end of this year, as I feel I reached a state I'm proud of I present it to you.
On a bright side, I also learned a freakin' ton !
* Travis CI * docker / docker-compose * Makefile * Packagist publishing * Documentation (I've built my own generator !) * Github Pages * Spellcheckers algorithms and features, * and so much more.
I hope you'll find it good enough to star it and give it visibility, that sounds cheesy writing it and I would probably ignore it myself if I read it in a post but now that I'm on the other side... I understand how much it can help the author and the community if it's deserved.
Happy new year everyone.
