This is a log of interesting user-facing changes to Feep! Search. There are also lots of changes going on under the hood; you can read about some of those on the blog.
Add https://wiki.nixos.org | |
Add MediaWiki crawler
| |
Added https://langdev.stackexchange.com and https://genai.stackexchange.com/ | |
Add changelog Also added backdated entries for older changes. | |
Hacker News datasource now updates weekly | |
Added RSS feed to blog | |
Add new StackExchange sites
| |
Remove date-fns documentation from index due to data problem The documentation on devdocs.io is missing an attribution link on the index page, which is causing indexing problems since Feep! can’t tell which URL to use. As a workaround, I have removed this docset and made a note to follow up on this. | |
Favicon serving improvements
| |
Improve mobile styling | |
Display helpful advice when no results are found | |
Cache example results This way new users can still see what things should look like even if the server has crashed. | |

Add Arch Wiki to datasources | |
Write some help pages | |
Enable additional StackExchange sites
(Emacs in particular was omitted by some great oversight, and I apologize for fanning the flames of the editor wars.) | |

Add new StackExchange sites
| |
Add Hacker News to datasources | |
Add unindexed links as data source Now there are a lot more pages to show in search results, even if we don’t know their contents yet. | |
Devdocs: disable docsets that don’t have URLs Some pages are missing attribution, so we can’t know what their canonical URL is. As a workaround, I’ve temporarily disabled these docsets and made a note to follow up. | |
Temporarily disable Reverse Engineering StackExchange This dump is currently unavailable due to an overzealous virus scanner, but should hopefully be back next quarter. | |
Devdocs is now updating again I noticed a suspicious lack of updates; when I investigated, I discovered that the old update URL was still returning a file, but it hadn't been changed for over a year. I have switched to the new path and things are updating again. | |
Start writing a blog | |
Add links to alternate search engines at bottom of results page | |
Add opensearch.xml | |
