Website: substring search #183

Open Fabien-Chouteau opened 5 years ago

Fabien-Chouteau commented 5 years ago

Right now the search bar of the website only matches on full words, it would be better to match substrings as well.

For instance a search for gtk should match gtkada.

This seems to be implemented/completed? Should this issue be closed?

There seems to be still some inconsistent behavior. Althought "gtk" matches in a lot of substrings, I get for example zero hits with "hell", "ello", "reactiv" whereas "hello" and "reactive" match properly.

Furthermore, partial matching seems to work only against descriptions (when it works).
