   Alright, here's the bare minimum necessary to have a fedi search engine.

   as:Public's demo, only for this side of fedi.

     @r000t fetch is relatively new but it will probably work. i can give you more complicated async json api call that will always work

     @r000t https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Fetch_API/Using_Fetch how to call the json api endpoint asynchronously and run another function on the returned data. please note it's an async function so the flow is different than synchronous javascript. you can append to document.body.innerHTML, that's super easy.
     
     this is probably good enough for cleansing the data you display:
     
     var entityMap = {
     '&': '&',
     '<': '&lt;',
     '>': '&gt;',
     '"': '&quot;',
     "'": '&#39;',
     '/': '&#x2F;',
     '`': '&#x60;',
     '=': '&#x3D;'
     };
     
     function escapeHtml (string) {
     return String(string).replace(/[&<>"'`=\/]/g, function (s) {
     return entityMap[s];
     });
     }

     @Moon Does that work on Chrome/Safari/Edge/Samsung Smart Bidet?

     @r000t oh okay no problem, was just afraid it was broke.
     
     you could learn something like vue.js to consume the content but that take a lot of work, it's not as hard imo to just do a fetch request for the json document and then yeah use javascript to iterate over the json and directly write html into the page. but you need to be really careful to cleanse/escape that fucking data or someone will exploit your front page with arbitrary code

     @Moon For now.

     I don't know enough javascript to do an api request, retrieve the result, and manufacture <divs> based on it. I gotta learn that now.

     @r000t is it supposed to return the results as a raw json document?

     @lain @r000t i would be mildly worried about smart fridges but yeah i'd start with fetch and only switch if you found problems
