Hi guys,
going back to the search feature in the Grass website. I've taken a look at
the options in Hugo docs. I think it may not be the best approach to have a
client based search as it will require loading big pieces of data...  in
principle all pages, so loading ... all website pages + all manual pages
in a single page. Take this one for example:
https://gist.github.com/cmod/5410eae147e4318164258742dd053993 ; using Hugo
it creates a json from all pages and then in the search implementation it
loads a js library and the json.  Other options listed in Hugo's website
are paid, like Algolia.

 So, maybe it would be better to just take the other approach of using
Duckduckgo or google in the mean time?
