Searchable Events #17

Issue

It may be that a user suspects there are ticket-able events, but doesn't know the link.

User Story

I am looking for an event to generate a ticket and expect to find it with a simple search because I just don't want to scroll through Crypto Twitter or Discord to find it.

Discussion

Recommendation: For later consideration, it might be nice to add a search function to find events.

This could be a text-based search box where I can search for a project name (e.g., Crypto Faries"). Or this could be behind the scenes as a lookup query where I connect a wallet and the PolicyIDs are searched against existing events with those PolicyIDs and either returns something like:

As mentioned elsewhere, currently the system is designed for handling multiple events but is designed to allow the individual event organizers to run their own events/ticketing through their own infrastructure and subsequently their own domain/url schema.

Being able to search/browse through the available events is definitely on the roadmap but this seems like a larger concept/idea around the platform being expanded into a SaaS solution where multiple event organizers could all be creating events through a unified/singular "GateKeeper" interface so that fans/attendees could visit a single page for interaction.

OK, I didn't see any mention of that. But if the point is to be able to run your own ticketing site for your event then this could be less of an issue.

I would probably actually prefer to be able to run this on my own platform. Hosting a ...twistedgears.io/tickets page that highlights an event. I generally would see that as more favorable, since keeping the URL on the same site reduces the possibility of phishing-type attacks and retains branding for projects.
