Show HN: Pythondocs.xyz – Live search for Python documentation

Hi everyone!

I've been working on a web search interface for Python's documentation as a personal project, and I think it's ready for other people to use...

Please give it a go (and join me in praying to the server gods):

https://pythondocs.xyz/

Here's the tech stack for those interested:

- Parser: Beautiful Soup + Mozilla Bleach

- Database: in-memory SQLite (aiosqlite) + SQLAlchemy

- Web server: FastAPI + Uvicorn + Jinja2

- Front end: Tailwind CSS + htmx + Alpine.js

I have ideas for future improvements but hopefully the current version is useful to someone.

Let me know what you think!
