Description

Adds full-text indexing, search, and spelling suggestions to Python applications without requiring a separate search server. It helps local tools and smaller web apps search documents, titles, metadata, or other text collections.

Developers use it as an embedded search library. Search quality depends on how content is indexed, tokenized, and updated, so rebuild indexes when source data changes.
