 # Spell Checking
 
-Foam comes with a spell checker.
-
-Misspelled words are highlighted, like hellow.
-You can place the cursor on top of the word, and press `cmd+.` for suggestions on how to fix the problem.
-
-You can configure the extension in the settings, for example to:
-
-- ignore certain files
-- change the language(s)
-- and much more
-
-For more information go to the [Spellright extension page](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=ban.spellright).

 There are many spell checking extensions for VS Code.
+
+The most popular spell checker for VS Code is [Code Spell Checker](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=streetsidesoftware.code-spell-checker).
+
 Another one of our favorites is [LTeX](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=valentjn.vscode-ltex&ssr=false#overview), which is a bit heavier but offers some extra functionality.
+
+Another popular one is [Spellright](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=ban.spellright), but be mindful that there have been reports of incompatibility with the `vscode-markdown` extension (see https://github.com/foambubble/foam/issues/1068).
