## What Jamie wrote

This is the kind of tool that one could easily breeze right by and think "Sure, sort of interesting" and give a 🤷‍♀️. However, there are many, many use cases where English text is run through systems to appear somewhere.

> Vale is an open-source, command-line tool that brings your editorial style guide to life.

My blog has over 10,000 files, each with a different blog post. I'd love to get spelling and grammar checks, but doing that with thousands of files isn't simple. Vale is perfect for that. Or, you have text that you need to insert into the software you are buidling and could insert Vale into the commit pipeline to make sure that it doesn't have errors. I need to set aside some time to play with this. It is also extensible so an organization can extend it with their own style guidelines.
