+# grosbeak
+
+*Nee Jemison*.
+
+A single-file search engine, for small (100K-1M page) sites.
+
+## why?
+
+Two reasons.
+
+* I would like to build a repository of sites and papers that is searchable. I want to own the content and the index, and I want it to be easy to deploy/self-host.
+* I want a search backend for LLM-based applications where I control the content.
+
+## requirements
+
+* An S3-compatible object store
+* SQlite or Postgres
+
+The use-case is (essentially) single-user.
