Hi Tom,

I'm looking for the same thing.

We decided to go with Typesense, which is open-source. We find the
Typesense community awesome. Typesense's search has an order of magnitude
better user experience than Sphinx's built-in search engine.

You can find example documentation and search here:

https://tradingstrategy.ai/docs/

You can find the setup in this Github repository:

https://github.com/tradingstrategy-ai/docs

We are hosting our own Typesense in a Docker which we update after Github
Actions rebuilds the docs.

You can also find this tutorial
https://writeexperience.co/integrating-typesense-with-sphinx-readthedocs-template-a-step-by-step-guide/
(it's still a lot of work to integrate).

Happy to answer any questions.

Br,
MIkko
