The client-side search index had grown to 16.3 MB raw / ~4.5 MB wire
(4,500+ docs), giving 25-30 s of blank UI before first results — users
read the dead window as 'search is broken entirely' (the engine itself
returned correct results).
Three levers, all config-only:
- searchContextByPaths: per-section index chunks. Searching from any
docs page now fetches only that section's index (e.g. Reference:
1.4 MB / 387 KB gz) instead of the 16 MB monolith. The search page
gains a section dropdown; landing-page searches still cover
everything via useAllContextsWithNoSearchContext.
- ignoreCssSelectors: ['pre']: fenced code blocks no longer indexed.
YAML/shell samples were generating huge high-cardinality lunr token
dictionaries; inline code in prose stays searchable.
- ignoreFiles: user-stories excluded (527 index docs of scraped
community quotes rendered by a React component).
Measured (npm run build, both locales):
- root 'Everywhere' index: 16.3 MB -> 13.2 MB raw (4.42 -> 3.57 MB gz)
- per-section indexes: 0.4-8.3 MB raw (103 KB-2.2 MB gz)
- zh-Hans root: 14.6 -> 12.6 MB raw
- local serve: first dropdown results in ~175-205 ms for both scoped
and Everywhere queries ('telegram' -> 8 options, search page -> 100)

README.md
Website
This website is built using Docusaurus, a modern static website generator.
Installation
yarn
Local Development
yarn start
This command starts a local development server and opens up a browser window. Most changes are reflected live without having to restart the server.
Build
yarn build
This command generates static content into the build directory and can be served using any static contents hosting service.
Deployment
Using SSH:
USE_SSH=true yarn deploy
Not using SSH:
GIT_USER=<Your GitHub username> yarn deploy
If you are using GitHub pages for hosting, this command is a convenient way to build the website and push to the gh-pages branch.
Diagram Linting
CI runs ascii-guard to lint docs for ASCII box diagrams. Use Mermaid (````mermaid`) or plain lists/tables instead of ASCII boxes to avoid CI failures.
