Edit: I forgot to add how would I add the webpage to the databases already suggested here? Do I need to use a separate program to spider/index each site, and check for its updates?

I've been meaning to attempt running a custom search engine for particular sites I've 'bookmarked'. Some sites contain gold that could be useful in the future and is not often discovered in Google results.

Should I go the Postgres/Elasticsearch route or are somewhat out-of-the-box solutions available?

Deciding between Rust or Go for desktop applications

I'm looking to expand my programming skills from web apps, automation, scripting - mainly Python - to more traditional cross-platform, desktop-based (but GUI lite) apps because I progressively want to get closer to the metal (one day work with embedded systems).

I've been wanting to run my own search engine sorta thingy that indexes websites I feed it. I sometimes find little nooks of the net that post resources I may need in the future. Like my own mini-Google that indexes a list of sites.

How can I go about creating this? Are their off-the-shelf solutions, will I need to say combine scrapy with elastic search? The links in this thread look promising.

I must say, Swift is a pretty good writer; yet this perception is warped by my surprise to be honest. I guess I'll go looking out for more of her written works when I next have a free moment to make a better judgement.
