We contributed the module Search API Decoupled to allow the creation of engaging search experiences with client-side Javascript applications. 

In comparison to traditional server side search, client side solutions are much faster, because fetching and rendering search results is much more efficient then requesting full pages. 

We released the backend functionality of Search API Decouple in Drupal Dev Days 2023 in Vienna, the slides and video are available online.

However, Drupal needs a fully working search client so that developers and marketers can easily evaluate the functionality for their projects. 

Such a client should provide great search functionality out-of-the-box and should be easy to extend and style.

We applied for funding at the Drupal Innovation Contest Pitchburgh but we did not get it. 

But we decided to build and contribute the functionality anyway.

  • Do full-text search on all the articles in Drupal Planet (thanks to Apache Solr)
  • Facet based on tags, author, or feed
  • Flip through articles quickly (with j/k or arrow keys) to find what you're interested in
  • View the entire article text inline, or in the context of the site where it was created
