A pilot for a spellchecker for Luganda can be found at https://app.spellchecker.polytext.io/lexicon/TGV4aWNvbk5vZGU6Mg==/spellcheck?

You print (or paste) a word or sequence of words into the open line area, and get a response in the larger field. If the expression is correctly spelled, just the expression is shown. If any word is misspelled, the word is shown with a red line underneath, and with suggestions for how it may be correctly spelled.

Note that the system is for word spelling only, not for syntax. Thus the sentence
