Fast open-source search engine in Rust — Algolia-like feel, but self-hosted.
Designed for instant-search UX: typo-tolerant, prefix search, facets, ranking customisation. Single binary, ships with an admin UI. Competition: Typesense (similar pitch in C++), Algolia (managed, expensive), Elasticsearch (heavier). Meilisearch Cloud exists for the managed option. Added vector search in 2024 for hybrid keyword + semantic.
