I see the author did the same search engine in Go a while ago. So I suppose the project being a side project to learn a new language. Or is there a different reason?
That is a good observation. The author might also need flexible search options at work. In any case, I have some interest in Rust but don’t actively use it. I found reading through the main server.rs file interesting as example code.

Perhaps. But the author Minoru Osuka ain't nobody[1]. He is
- Engineer at Mercari, Inc.
- Committer at Apache Software Foundation
- Co-author of a Apache Solr book in Japanese
- Ex-Yahoo! JAPAN
- Ex-Rakuten
So yeah, I think he knows what he's doing.
