I'm on here looking for text indexers and everything is 'lightning fast exoscale terafloops that scales to enterprise quantawarbles with polytopplic performanations' and it would be great if this industry could breathe into a bag until it remembers that one person with one computer is a constituency that matters.
@mhoye I'm all in on “lightweight alternatives to Elasticsearch / Solr”. Let's see if I starred something useful…
https://github.com/valeriansaliou/sonic (Rust)
https://github.com/zincsearch/zincsearch (Go)
https://github.com/askorama/orama (JS)
https://github.com/CloudCannon/pagefind (specifically for static sites)
https://github.com/kbrsh/wade (Rust, library like Lucene)

@jnv @mhoye Does Meillisearch (https://github.com/meilisearch/meilisearch) fit into this?

@[email protected] Do you want recommendations for your text-indexers question? In the full text search department: Take a look at melisearch (https://github.com/meilisearch/meilisearch) or Apache solr (https://solr.apache.org/guide/solr/latest/index.html), which is like elastic search but without all the licensing kerfuffle
