Plug-and-Play Search with React + Vite

Publish Date: May 30
13 9

Vite fam, we just launched a new open-source Vite + React template that makes it easy to integrate search into any web app using Searchcraft, our Rust-powered, developer-first search engine built for frontend teams.

If you’ve ever struggled with search integrations that feel like setting up a data center, this is for you.

  • Use the template via GitHub or degit from the command line: npx degit searchcraft-inc/vite-react-searchcraft-template <app_name>
  • Sign up at Searchcraft.io (free)
  • Plug in your API key and start building!

We’d love your feedback: PRs, issues, and stars welcome!

    pretty cool honestly, i always get bogged down setting search up in projects - you ever notice if simpler templates help people actually ship stuff or do folks just find new excuses anyway?

      Ha! In my previous life I owned an agency that built products for startups. We've been in the trenches and as consultants we were on the line to ship. Templates helped us; now we're making the tools we wish we had for the other teams having the experience of consistently needing to do more with less.

      If you want to try it out, you can chat with me and the team on our Discord for more real-time help in getting you set up.
