Inspired by the terrible search on the DOJ website, I created this project I've been working on over the last few days to modernize it. Slightly different than sites like JMail (which I highly recommend others play with too, super cool), I primarily focusing on both visual search, text semantic search, and full text search of all documents. Wanted to share the progress so far.

Any and all constructive feedback would be appreciated!

Work in progress: - More mobile friendly search - Better loading states - Better ranking on lean text and lean visual searches - Better thresholding of search results - Gallery view improvements including original document view with a thumbnail timeline. - Anyone can flag a document today, I'm working on taking those flags into the search results to better filter out redacted pages, blank pages, and junk pages while boosting consistently flagged newsworthy. - Open sourcing the processed dataset in a single download / torrent
