Building jargons.dev [#2]: The Dictionary Search Engine
The feature was powered by flexsearch — a zero-deps full-text search library; ooh boy I'm a big fan of lightweight and no/low dependencies. I dug into how Nextra uses this to index content at build-time for search; it was interesting.

Sloth search for Ruby Weekly – a 100 minute hack turned 20h open sauce project
P.S. it just occurred to me that if the aggregated links are less than 1mb of data or something like that you could try to bundle all data in a single JSON object and search in the frontend with a library like flexsearch [1]. That could be even less work than running a minimal rails backend.

Very nice! Seems to perform very well. I'm curious, have you compared Fuse with other search engines? Like flex search or elasticlunr? Why did you choose fuse ?

Comparing English and Spanish Words in JavaScript
I actually looked into this term before localeCompare(): Full Text Search. It's pretty heavy duty. In JavaScript, this can come in the form of a library dependency like FlexSearch. Far too bulky for the humble sorting task I have at hand.
