@athadi I start building the same for the kayak/canoe industry. Can you tell us more about your tech stack and how did you get all the 14 000 products ? Thanks !

@matthieuhelary @athadi The easiest (and most common) way to get the products is by using the given product feeds of the shops and check them periodically. Unfortunately not all shops offer these feeds, so we decided to develop our own crawler. We are crawling each shop up to three times a day, to keep the products as up-to-date as possible. We're using PHP (Laravel + selected Symfony components) in the Backend and Vue.js in the Frontend (in example for the Instant Search).

@helloiamlukas Professional curiosity: looks like you're not using Algolia to power your Instant Search, but the implementation is great so I can't gripe much. What did you end up using to power Search? @matthieuhelary @athadi
