Show HN: DocGoblin – A Super Fast Desktop Search Engine for Your PDFs

Hello everyone,

I'm happy to show you my project and would love to get some feedback on it!

DocGoblin is a desktop search engine designed to handle large collections of PDFs. It indexes your documents and allows you to perform fast and accurate searches for specific terms, phrases, or sections across your entire library in less than a second.

For more details on the technologies : * JavaFX for UI * Lucene for indexing and search * PDFium for PDF rendering * Runs on Windows, Mac and Linux * Packaging via jpackage / jlink (distributed as native installers)

I also created an open-source example for packaging a java/javaFX app on github : https://github.com/JulienTroudet/easyJavaFXSetup

DocGoblin is my first "commercial" and independant project :) I'm really proud of it!
