Every object in the app should be subject to full-text search. Ideally this is all done within Elm.

The most relevant text search libraries are:

https://package.elm-lang.org/packages/jxxcarlson/elm-search/latest/ Searches text like the one below but also dates, no special features.

https://package.elm-lang.org/packages/billstclair/elm-id-search/latest/ Can just filter records by their strings, so may be useful for autocomplete tagging of tasks or contexts or people

https://package.elm-lang.org/packages/jxxcarlson/elm-text-search/latest/ Does everything the above can do, Covers all the basics, allows negation and logical operators, not much fuzziness features

https://package.elm-lang.org/packages/rluiten/elm-text-search/latest/
inspired by lunr, probably the most powerful option, includes fuzziness features!
