6. Search and Filter Favorites

As a User: I want to search and filter my favorited URLs.

Objective: To quickly find specific favorites based on title, URL, category, tags and timestamp.

Expectations:

• The system should provide a search functionality that allows users to enter keywords. - The system should enable filtering by category, tags, or a combination of both.
• Search and filter results should be displayed in a user-friendly manner with pagination.

Search function docs/Search.md

Filter by category and tags

Fields to retrieve the information title, URL, category, tags and timestamp

Idea 1: use query API. Input keywords match to fields title,URL, category, tags. Filter narrow down search. Only limit to category or tag.

Idea 2: use search library that support invert document indexes.

Prototype implementation, just to start.

1. query is keywords
2. output is paginated
