The HN search implentation is a bit sad, because it lacks the most magic part of Algolia : the real time search.
Using Algolia in a full-page-load HTML request is using a Ferrari do drive to the grocery store. You can, but what a waste
- Artemis2 8y agoHave you tried https://hn.algolia.com https://hn.algolia.com?
- donmatito 8y agoYes I had, but I forgot about it, thanks. Much better than HN own implentation. Algolia also implemented a linkedin contact search infinitely superior to Linkedin own search. I remember thinking that both demos were really brilliant growth strategy because it showed clearly, by contrast, how much the status quo was painful
