Greptile SummaryThis PR updates the CodeMirror memo editor’s content attributes to request virtual-keyboard autocapitalization while retaining native autocorrection.
Confidence Score: 5/5The PR appears safe to merge with no identified blocking or non-blocking issues. The new editor extension preserves the existing autocorrection value and additively enables autocapitalization without changing memo state, synchronization, or persistence behavior.

@codemirror/view 6.43.6 editorview.ts contentDOM spellcheck false contentAttributes
💡 Result:
In @codemirror/view (including version 6.43.6), the EditorView component manages the attributes of its internal editable DOM element (contentDOM) automatically [1][2]. Specifically, within the editorview.ts source file, the internal updateAttrs method initializes the contentDOM attributes with a default set of values, explicitly setting spellcheck to "false" [1][3]: const contentAttrs: Attrs = { spellcheck: "false", autocorrect: "off", autocapitalize: "off", writingsuggestions: "false", translate: "no", contenteditable:!this.state.facet(editable)? "false": "true", class: "cm-content",... } To override this default and enable browser spell checking (or customize other attributes), you can use the contentAttributes facet [4][5]. This allows you to provide an object of attributes that will be merged with or override the defaults [1][5]: import {EditorView} from "@codemirror/view" // Example: Enabling spellcheck const enableSpellcheck = EditorView.contentAttributes.of({spellcheck: "true"}) // Add this to your EditorView extensions const view = new EditorView({ extensions: [enableSpellcheck, /*... other extensions */] }) Because EditorView constantly manages the DOM to reflect the editor state, browser-native spell checking can sometimes be inconsistent or buggy, as the browser's heuristics for identifying user edits may conflict with the editor's DOM manipulations [6][5].

Enable spellchecking on the editor content DOM.
@codemirror/view 6.43.6 defaults contentDOM to spellcheck="false". Add spellcheck: "true" to this EditorView.contentAttributes configuration and test on iOS and Android.
