A few dozen articles? I've seen examples with Fuse.js and Hugo searching over 10,000 articles and it is fast. No server-side components required.

I think most people (me included) underestimate how ridiculously tiny raw text is compared to other common file types.

Great way to botch user experience since the user has to download the index.

There are ways to optimize this per section, alphabetically, etc. Otherwise Xapian is very easy to setup and would be my goto over Elasticsearch.
