Grammar Checking in Erlang

Erlang is a programming language for the Erlang virtual machine. It is designed for distributed, fault-tolerant, and highly concurrent/parallelizable systems. Applications of Erlang include WhatsApp and telephony switches.

Sapling: AI Writing Assistant

With Sapling, you can add grammar or spell checking functionality to an existing Erlang application.

This page demonstrates a quick way to integrate grammar and spell checking functionality into a Erlang application using Sapling's API. If you are not looking for a Erlang guide, click here for guides for other programming languages.

Sapling does not currently maintain a Erlang-specific SDK, but you can access the Sapling Grammar Checking HTTP API using any programming language that supports HTTP POST requests. An example is shown below.
