well I'd say that was an effective weekly stand up meeting 😅
🐛 Issue
Since we have two indices, search results always return with web page results first, and content item results second.
This makes it hard to the user to understand which results to look at, and without any other result context (like summaries) the quality of the search results feel very poor.
✏️ Solution
Combine multi-index results into a single array. This is hacky, and isn't a permanent solution. Best case - the results end up in a much better order. Worse case - they end up in a similar order to they are already.
Add summary/subtitles to results
Remove "Search history" section if you have search results
As a follow up, @vinnyjth is going to document work to be done on the shovel to create a new, combined index that we can start tweaking to more dramatically improve search results.
Also, we will need to pursue a minor (hopefully) refactor for search on the web. Currently, all search is done through the autocomplete API on Algolia, not the instantsearch api. This means that features like snippeting is not available, and we also can not use any of Algolia's out of the box react components. Not using algolia best practices, unfortunately.
