Stork Search

Full-text, WASM-powered search for static sites

Stork Search launched on December 27, 2020 with 2 votes. The site was still online in September 2026, 5 years on.

What it does

Stork is a full-text search tool for static websites. Instead of setting up a server or paying for a Saas product, use Stork. Build your search index and host it like an image, then search through your text impossibly fast using the power of WebAssembly.

Impossibly fast web search, built for static sites.

I've wound down my work with Stork . The project will be available, but I don't plan on making updates going forward. Thanks to everyone who used Stork over the years. Stork is a library for creating beautiful, fast, and accurate full-text search interfaces. It comes in two parts. First, it's a command-line tool that indexes content and creates a search index file that you can upload to a web server. Second, it's a Javascript library that uses that search index file to build an interactive search interface that displays optimal search results immediately to your user, as they type. Stork is built with Rust, and the Javascript library uses WebAssembly behind the scenes. It's easy to get…from stork-search.net

    Alternative search engines are neat, as are RSS feeds. OpenOrb is a self-hosted app which allows visitors to search over a list of blogs you love. If you put your 10 favourite blogs in there, it'll search just those blogs and not show you any sponsored content or machine-generated garbage (unless... you follow blogs written by machines?) Personal RSS feed readers can usually do this sort of thing, but RSS readers aren’t meant to be shared, so you can think of the search engine as a 'curated feed list as a public service'. I wrote a longer blog post about OpenOrb here:…

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

    It's been a long slow hog and I almost gave up a few times (more than a few) but when covid hit this year it gave me some time to really focus on my product. There were stupid user journey things that I knew needed fixed. There were some features I knew needed added. And I knew the pricing was wrong. I spent some hardcore time working on these things back in March / April and since then my MRR has continued to grow. My product is SongBox (https://songbox.rocks) - it's an alternative to things like bandcamp and soundcloud for creators who need to share audio files privately.…
