[Site] Create an index.html under crum/ so You Can Look Up Words more Conveniently

[pishoyg]

This index.html should have a giant list of hyperlinks pointing to the individual pages, with the title of the word containing a comma-separated list of the words you find on the front, along with their meanings. Maybe include the Coptic in the hyperlink, and keep the meaning out.

Then you can share a link to https://pishoyg.github.io/crum/ to add visibility to your project.
We have a homepage, at metremnqymi.com. And it won't be just the digital Crum dictionary, it will list a lot of stuff.

TODO: Use JavaScript for a basic text-based search interface.

[pishoyg]

TODO: Also include a link to the dictionary index link in the headers of individual words, so people know where to go to search or other words.

[pishoyg]

IDEA: Crum Pipeline should export a keywords column, or some other column that we can use for search.

#225 might help attract search engine traffic, thus getting Google to index your site quickly, which will make the engine better.

[pishoyg]

Right now, we have settled on using a Programmable Search Engine from Google, and improving the page quality to attract some search engine traffic or get Google to index the site more quickly.

The traffic attraction (UI, gaining popularity, better metadata, ...) belongs in other issues. This is pending sitting and waiting.
I would love to mark this as done, but I can't simply do it until it actually starts working.
Fortunately, the text content of the pages doesn't get updated often (styling does, images do, ...) So we don't need frequent indexing, we just need it to get indexed once.

TODO: Include a link to the search page in the header.

[pishoyg]

Here is our (still not working) search page: https://metremnqymi.com/crum/.

[pishoyg]

Consider implementing static client-side search.
Here is a good candidate https://www.fusejs.io/.

[pishoyg]

Status: This is implemented and live at https://metremnqymi.com/crum/.
Summary TODO:

1. Polish the commits and push them.
2. Add a link to the search page in the note headers.
3. Add an option to search for a whole word only.
4. Simplify the Xoogle data representation.

[pishoyg]

BUG: Search query highlighting doesn't work with partial words.

[pishoyg]

This is done. Suggested improvements will be tracked in #229.
