Documentation search

[fortmarek]

As the documentation keeps growing and growing, it becomes harder to find what you are looking for, especially for new users. Have you, @pepibumur, considered adding a search to the documentation?

Gatsby has docs for this and there are two main options - either client search or API-based search engine. AFAICT, integrating Algolia should be the easiest - and although they are commercial, they offer quite generous programs for opensource projects, so it should have no recurring costs for us.

Any thoughts, would others find this helpful, so it's worth implementing this?

I 100% agree we should introduce search. It'll make finding content way easier. Between client and server side search, I'm more inclined towards the Algolia option because client side increases the bundle size, and Algolia is free for open source projects.

I'm looping in @julianpanzer and @andreacipriani who are working on the new website and might want to make this part of it.

Good suggestion @fortmarek; I'll make it happen as part of the new website

Awesome, looking forward to that! 🎉
