FTS5 is amazing.

Is there anything that's as small and easy to use as FTS5 for indexing text files or JSON documents on the file system?

I wrote about this too[1], and since rqlite[2] puts a HTTP API in front of SQLite, you've got a SQLite-backed search engine available over the network.

I'd like to see that ! been fiddling with sqlite and fts5 to drop algolia from my application.
