Enable/adjust searching or filtering for puzzles by folding engine #270

Closed sbutkovi closed 3 years ago

sbutkovi commented 3 years ago

As an Eterna player, I am interested in being able to more directly filter and/or search puzzles by what folding engine they use.

At the time of this posting, the website lets you search for puzzles with a certain folding engine if you search by a given tag (for example, "[VRNA_2]" for Vienna2). However, I do not think this solution is as user-friendly or robust as it could be:

I don't know what the "ideal" solution is - but I do think adding some sort of functionality or adjustment to the current puzzle searcher that addresses this issue could improve the user experience.

We should totally have a filter for engine. We started the process of enhancing filters in #215, but stalled in part because I hadn't gotten the chance to add additional filters to the backend - this is one of those filters that needs to be added.

Tracking in #272 as a more wholistic issue
