MeiliSearch: A Minimalist Full-Text Search Engine
If you're in the market for lightweight but fast search engines, I would recommend you take a look to typesense [1], instead; or even sonic [2], if it fits your use case. MeiliSearch does not give you anything on top of them (i.e. neither as feature complete as [1], not as fast as [2]).<p>And I personally stopped using them after a really bad experience I had with their "developers". They don't really care about you and it shows, also, they were kind of rude when I reported some bugs to them.<p>I moved to typesense and it's a whole different world, their creators truly enjoy that you're using their product; same thing with sonic, Valerian is the kind of hacker you'd want as a friend, super talented, super easy going, you could ask a completely dumb question on their GH and he takes the time to explain things to you at length. I know its open source, I know I didn't pay a dime, but for me, that kind of attitude makes it or break it. Plus, you actually get a superior product.<p>1: <a href="https://typesense.org/" rel="nofollow">https://typesense.org/</a><p>2: <a href="https://github.com/valeriansaliou/sonic" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/valeriansaliou/sonic</a>
