gollark: See, there are lots of ways I could do it: - the way dokuwiki handles search, where there's a box in the navbar and when you hit enter it navigates to a new page with the results (somewhat slower to interact with, but simple and allows a lot of information with each result)- clientside JS implementing a search overlay/modal so that the results update immediately as you type, except this is kind of not that useful as SQLite full text search is not very fuzzy- a combination of these approaches, where you have a live JS-based fuzzy search thing for page *titles* and the dokuwiki-style thing for most searches
