• Autocomplete
• SearchCenter

Usage / features

• Searching titles, full text, files
• Search-as-you-type and auto-complete
• Ignore upper and lower case
• Searching with operators (AND, OR, NOT)
• Searching with wildcards
• Search for phrases
• Fuzzy search
• Faceted search (set filters on search results)
