    By default, yes. The description of the add-on explains this, but it got somehow removed. I've added it again.

    Looks a pretty good add-on. However, not working on FF developer 52.0a2 (2016-12-19) (64-bit). Nonetheless could see the LT button on the upper-right bar, nothing but a blank panel appears when clicking the LT button....

    1.0.10 has just been released and should fix the most prominent issue. Saving the preferences still does not work. Update 2017-04-15: everything should work fine now again with version 1.0.13

    Great! If you don't like sending your data to a third party network you can use this add on with a locally hosted instance on your computer or on a private network.

    I simply run language tool from the command line like this:

    languagetool --http --allow-origin "*"
    default port is 8081 but you can specify another one by adding this : --port 666

    then in the add on preferences simply change the LanguageTool API Server URL to:
    http://localhost:8081/v2/

    LanguageTool is a very useful spell- and grammar checker. It is easy to use and open source. A must have if you want to write in a language that is not 100% in your grasp.

    The new version significantly improved the usability of this very useful add-on! Keep up the good work!
