VuePress VS docsearch

VuePress - when I searched if it's supporting what I want (conditional rendering), the first result is a bug issue opened 4 years ago, so it doesn't seem to be a good option.

I'm new to IA Writer, and I'm wanting to use it to draft posts for my Vuepress site.

VitePress is listed in the documents as VuePress' little brother, and it is built on top of Vite. For those that don't know Vite is a build tool that aims to provide a faster and leaner development experience for modern web projects so it might sense to pair it with a static site generator such as VitePress. One of the original problems with VuePress was that it was a Webpack app and it took a lot of time to spin up a dev server for just a simple doc. VitePress solves these problems with nearly instant server start, an on-demand compilation that only compiles the page being served, and lightning-fast HMR. Let's get started!

VuePress

Trying to help build a design system at work in my spare time; no clue if it will go anywhere but it’s fun regardless. I asked the Elm Slack group what the equivalent of React Storybook. Specifically, I wanted a way to build a documentation website like Vuepress with the ability to host native Elm code to showcase components. They pointed me to Elm Book. While Elm Book has built-in theming capabilities, I needed CSS control over my components. While they support elm-css, I wanted the ability to use TailwindCSS. The Elm libraries haven’t kept up with Tailwind’s changes, which is fine; writing raw Tailwind CSS on Elm HTML functions is easy and co-located with the component you’re styling.

Vuepress is a minimalistic static site generator with a Vue-powered theming system and a default theme that has been optimized for writing technical documentation.

You can use auto-import or Vue-Press. You can reference my-project using the auto-import plugin

This parameter is default and there is a issue.

A few popular examples of static site generators include Hugo, Jekyll, and VuePress.

Great work! How it would be different from Algolia DocSearch?

Additionally, Algolia’s DocSearch has been integrated for improved search experience.

First, register with Algolia. Then you need to upload the document information in VuePress application to Algolia. DocSearch provides a crawler and UI to easily crawl index information and upload it. However, you need to meet certain conditions to apply for this service. Fortunately, the old version of DocSearch provided a solution to run the crawler yourself. So I ended up with the Run Your Own solution.

Can't use a free tier SaaS service like Algolia DocSearch. (e.g. private site, your use case dosen't fit the ToS, etc.)

When planning the feature I stated that More complex sites will probably (and should) use Algolia, which is an amazing service that I personally use for some sites (Thank you DocSearch!)

Docusaurus powers the documentation sites for many of the tools developers use every day, including Algolia Docsearch, Jest, React Native, and Redis.

Yes, search is definitely on the "roadmap" (if there is such a thing). A simple substring search across all protocols should be relatively easy to implement. But from your description it sounds like an integration with docsearch (or a similar service) would be more appropriate.
