# 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.
