Building a Simple Search Engine That Actually Works

You don't need Elasticsearch for most projects. I built a simple search engine from scratch that tokenizes everything, stores it in your existing database, and scores results by relevance. Dead simple to understand and maintain.

I’m a proud CRUD monkey

Web pages aren’t that different from what they were in the late ’90s, early 2000s. They’re still just forms. They still just write to databases.

They just make systems that create, read, update, or delete rows in a database and they have to compensate for that existential dread by over complicating things. — DHH, Lex Fridman Podcast #474 (2025)
