Very nice. I run searchcode.com which I have been neglecting recently. That said I do like to see other code search engines and play around with them. Seems you have disabled the default regex search offered by elastic? I didn’t look into the code much but a search of /.*/ yielded no results?

Yes, currently it is simple term search, regex searches aren't very stable with respect to performance. Something to think about it for next iteration.
