Full Text Search with IndexedDB

The article explores implementing full-text search in IndexedDB for web applications, starting with a simple table scan approach for smaller datasets. It provides practical JavaScript code examples for tokenization, stopword filtering, and cursor-based searching. The solution is presented as a starting point for developers needing local text search capabilities.

Background

IndexedDB is a low-level browser-based database API commonly used for client-side storage in web applications, but it lacks built-in full-text search capabilities. Developers often need to implement custom solutions for searching locally stored text data.
