I couldn't get related pages with the current search bar of
docs.mistral.ai
, even for simple queries.The problem is the underlying local search index called Lunr. I agree that local search can be enough for the current size of docs, but Lunr hasn't been updated for the last 4 years and there's a better alternative called Pagefind.
After the switch from
Lunr
toPagefind
, I found the search results got way better.To try locally:
All source code related to search index and UI is MIT licensed. For UI customization, there's documentation too.
