Visual Studio 2013 spell checker

I have dyslexia and am starting my first collaborative project with other students using the IDE Visual Studio 2013. I fear that my miss spellings may cause errors and annoyance to the rest of the team, so I wish to keep my spelling mistakes to a minimum.

Projects on which I work alone are less of a problem, as if I spell the word wrong I tend to spell it wrong throughout the program in the same way - but I feel I would still get use out of a spell checker for these too.

I have had a google but only found a few plugins, most of which are outdated. Any help is much appreciated.

Does Visual Studio have spell check?

The Visual Studio 2022 editor will have a built-in spell-checker to help you code more accurately with fewer errors.

There is this one that has been updated recently: Visual Studio Spell Checker

You can just add it from VS by going to the Extensions.
Tools -> Extensions and Updates -> Online -> Search box -> Search for Spell Checker

I just tried it out, works well.

If you have ReSharper (highly recommended, but a bit pricey) then I can recommend ReSpeller. Costs only $10 and is completely integrated into ReSharper.

At the same time, I can mention that ReSpeller (at least for the version I have, 2.3 for ReSharper 7.1) has one unfortunate quirk, but it is an option that can fortunately be turned off.

ReSpeller is unexpectedly accepting "prefered" as correct spelling
