Spellcheck Capitals for Obsidian

Spellcheck Capitals is an Obsidian plugin that suppresses spellcheck for capitalized words in the editor.

How to use

Simply turn on the plugin in the community-plugins settings in Obsidian. That's all; no settings.

Features

The plugin:

• ignores words that start with an uppercase letter;
• supports Unicode uppercase letters such as Élodie;
• supports internal apostrophes and dashes such as O'Neill and Jean-Luc;
• ignores only words with at least two letters or digits, so single-letter words such as I remain spellchecked.

What it does internally

When Obsidian renders editable Markdown through CodeMirror, this plugin wraps matching words in a span with spellcheck="false". That prevents the browser from drawing spellcheck underlines for those words while leaving the rest of the editor untouched.

Build

npm install
npm test
npm run build

After that, copy manifest.json and main.js into:

<Vault>/.obsidian/plugins/spellcheck-capitals/
