This enhancment would improove the writing experiance.
ZenNotes would underline the misspelled words and offer suggestions such as:

Why this would help
Spell checking has become a standard feature in modern text editors and note-taking applications. It helps users catch typos while writing, improves the quality of notes, and reduces the need to copy text into another editor just to proof-read it.
Additional context
It would also be useful to allow users to add words to a personal dictionary. This would prevent project names, technical terms, abbreviations, names, and other domain-specific words from being repeatedly flagged as misspelled, making spell checking more practical for everyday use.
