Feature: homepage quick launch aka search

[shamoon]

I made a thing! Its a "quick launcher"? aka global search of all services & bookmarks, triggered by just typing on the page. Its very simple but as a result its fast AF. Im sure I missed some things in here but overall pretty happy with this. Appreciate any feedback / tweaks. Video is all keyboard =)

Edit:

• A way to bring this up on mobile, or keep it desktop only?
• Should we search / include descriptions?
  • Edit: added as an option
• Prioritization?
  • Edit: uses same order as services/bookmarks config, I think thats good
• Highlighting?
  • Edit: Only for descriptions. I dont like it for the main name.

Good question! I think you'd need to pull the repo but its pretty easy if you want to try.

Regarding including descriptions, curious on people's thoughts. I have an (uncommitted) change that:

• searches the description and shows highlighting only in the description to make it apparent why that result is included
• prioritizes name matches ahead of description matches

See screenshot, again, would love to hear what people think 🙂

This looks really nice Im going to pull this branch and try it out!
I like it showing the description, but I don't know how I feel about it also searching the description.

Thanks! 😊 Yea I think I agree, I added them without searching, for now.

I did try it and I think it works great, would love to have this. Once I used it a little I found myself missing it =)

Perhaps searching descriptions could be a setting, though only if many would use it (I dont think I would)

Okey-dokey I added an option for searching descriptions (defaults to off), e.g.

quicklaunch:
    searchDescriptions: true

vs

and everybody wins =)

(note the first three items stay higher on the list because they matched the actual name)

Yes I think this is a good solution for all. Hope to have this feature soon very soon!
