Harper now has the capability for evolution through a new system called The Ripper.
The Ripper improves the ability to add new grammatical rules by 500% to 1,000% without slowing Harper down or increasing memory usage.
Expression rules are the majority of grammatical rules Harper can detect due to their speed and ease of writing and reviewing.
The English language's complexity often leads to tedious and time-consuming iterations when creating rules.
The Ripper automates the iteration process by generating and testing expression rules at a high speed (90k candidates per second).
Future optimizations include batch processing datasets and integrating LLMs to automate rule creation from style guides.
SpellBolt is a Firefox extension that brings Harper's grammar checking to the browser.
Harper is undergoing significant improvements to enhance language analysis and correction capabilities.
