Searchkit is an open-source TypeScript library providing search UI components and a Node.js API layer for building search experiences on top of Elasticsearch and OpenSearch. It is compatible with Algolia's InstantSearch and Autocomplete components, supporting React, Vue, Angular, and plain JavaScript.

Use cases

  • build a search UI for Elasticsearch
  • add faceted filtering and refinement to search results
  • migrate from Algolia to Elasticsearch without rewriting UI components
  • add autocomplete to an Elasticsearch-backed site
  • proxy Elasticsearch requests from the browser through a Node API
  • build a semantic search experience with Next.js
  • create an e-commerce product search page

When to choose

  • you use Elasticsearch or OpenSearch and need a polished search frontend quickly
  • you want to reuse Algolia InstantSearch components with your own search engine
  • you need to keep Elasticsearch credentials off the browser via a proxy API
  • you work across React, Vue, Angular, or vanilla JS

When to avoid

  • your backend is not Elasticsearch or OpenSearch
  • you need a fully custom search UI with no component abstractions
  • you want a hosted search SaaS rather than a self-managed library
