For a long time Find-in-Files in IDE's and text editors has been secondary. Blitz Search gives simple find-in-files a long overdue upgrade. Offering any IDE a new improved replacement for the old standard often slow and cumbersome find in files processes.
Hey Nathan,
I'm wondering what specific performance optimizations you implemented to make it faster than built-in IDE search?
Do you have plans to release plugins for specific IDEs in the future?
Congrats on the launch!
@kyrylosilin Blitz Search uses a proprietary indexing solution, keeping a reduced set of information in memory to keep it nice and lean. It also leverages messagepack and other modern technologies to help with quick startup times.
@kyrylosilin I would love to support more IDEs, the integration itself is very thin so that more could easily be added, its just a matter of which ones to go afterb (there are many). Squeeky wheels get the greese, come to my discord server and lets talk!
Blitz definitely seems like a strong product but I wonder if the focus on text files might limit its appeal. In a world where users manage multiple file types and cloud services integrating broader file support could make it more versatile. Right now it feels a bit too niche for wider adoption.
@alexandergreen its a good point and early feefback as well as research into other tools has me thinking about non text files like .pdf and things as well.
