πŸ”Ž Your users deserve searching capabilities!

So your site is growing larger and larger and so it becomes harder and harder to find anything you wrote more than a few weeks ago. And that is frustrating.

Words vanish, writing remains

Yes…​ But if it remains buried deep in a pile of posts, it won’t be of any use to any one.

It seems you need to add a search engine to your site.

And guess what ? We couldn’t agree more with you 🀩. We think you are perfectly right, and that people should listen to you more. At least that’s what we do. πŸ‘‚

Tadddaaah! We wrote a Lunr.js plugin for Roq.
