Description

A decentralized search engine node can crawl, index, and share search results through a peer-to-peer network. This is useful for users or communities that want search infrastructure outside a single central provider.

Search nodes can use bandwidth, disk space, and expose local administration interfaces. Review crawl scope, privacy, and network settings before running it continuously.
