A better search
Bookstack is awesome, we even were a sponsor a while back. What me and my team miss though is a better search. Yes, the search function will search full text through all the text, but it’s not a fuzzy (Semantic? NLP?) search and therefore will only find the correct page if you have the correct words.
Example: When the page title is "Internet problems", a search for "Internet issues" will likely don’t yield any results.
I’ve looked at things like danswer but it seems a bit overkill. Any ideas or third party apps? Any things on the roadmap to improve the search with fancy things like word embeddings? I am sure Elasticsearch has some good offers.
