API - convention for filter that can have an occurrence of the value passed?
You might be looking for something like Ransack - https://github.com/activerecord-hackery/ransack
-
Airtable-like table filtering
I use ransack for this and find it very powerful and flexible without the need to rely on complex JS.

Building an Advanced Search Form in Rails 6
You can use gems like Ransack to build search forms much faster, but for the purpose of learning and performance we will be building this feature ourselves. Throughout the process, you will also learn how to customize Rails default pluralization. By the end, we will be able to search for Pokemon by name, type, and region.
