I've been a fan of Matthias' project for a while. I learned about it soon after starting Stork: https://stork-search.net

They're very similar and share a lot of principles, though Matthias went full-on towards the algorithmic aspect and I focused on the experience of including the UI (copy-pastable from the code on the home page) and building a search index.

I think WASM-aided in-browser search is really exciting! There are clear benefits for content creators (embedding search on a Jamstack site has historically been tricky) and for users alike (Caching & offline support is pretty rad if your users are doing a lot of searching). I'm excited to see Matthias' project get attention here!
