Universal Open-Source Documentation Search Engine
Many open-source libraries lack effective search functionality in their documentation. For example, Apache Storm (version 2.7.0) has no search feature at all, making it difficult for developers to find relevant information quickly. While some documentation sites provide basic search capabilities, they often use simple keyword matching that yields suboptimal results. The app aims to develop a universal documentation search engine that can enhance any open-source library's documentation searchability. Users will simply provide the documentation URL, and our system will automatically scrape, index, and make the content searchable using BM25 ranking for improved relevance.
