Thanks! Honestly, given it's hacked together in a weekend not sure it’d measure up to Lucene/Bleve in any serious way.

I intended this to be an easy on-ramp for folks who want to get a feel for how FTS engines work under the hood :)

Sure, but it says "High-performance" Full Text Search Engine. Shouldn't that claim be backed up by numbers, comparing it to the state of the art?

Not _that_ long ago Bleve was also hacked together over a few weekends.

I appreciate the technical depth of the readme, but I’m not sure it fits your easy on-ramp framing.

Keep going and keep sharing.
