How to run VSCode Code Spell Checker extension on an entire folder?/

Question

Street Side Software's Code Spell Checker is a great VSCode extension to tease out typos. I mainly interact with it on a per source file basis where opening the file in the editor triggers the spell check rundown. Is there some way to enact a spell check on an entire directory, maybe even opening all affected files?

Answer 1

This is not currently possible with the extension but it is still an open ISSUE 376 on plugin's github page so it is possible, in future, this feature might be added.

As an alternative, as suggested in the same issue, you can use cspell utility to spell check project directory.
