Show HN: CC Search – search engine for 300M CC-licensed images
I'm Director of Engineering at Creative Commons and part of the team that is working on CC Search.We've been working on the product for over a year and we are just out of beta today! One of CC's goals is to encourage the use and remixing of CC-licensed content, and we hope that CC Search will help make that content more discoverable. The current version is very much an MVP and only searches images, but we plan to add more content types in the future and index the ~1.4 billion works out there under a CC license. We would love any feedback you might have.Also, CC Search, the associated API, and the scripts we use to index data are all open-source and developed completely openly. Our sprints and roadmap are public and we welcome contributions from the community.Relevant links:CC Search code: https://github.com/creativecommons/cccatalog-frontend/CC Catalog API code: https://github.com/creativecommons/cccatalog-api/CC Catalog code: https://github.com/creativecommons/cccatalog/2019 Vision: https://creativecommons.org/2019/03/19/cc-search/Roadmap: https://docs.google.com/document/d/19yH2V5K4nzWgEXaZhkzD1egz...Active sprint: https://github.com/orgs/creativecommons/projects/7Backlog: https://github.com/orgs/creativecommons/projects/10How to contribute to CC projects: https://creativecommons.github.io/contributing-code/
