pdfgrep.org is a CLI tool I use a lot to reference documents from classes. I’ve been playing around with Emscripten and I wanted to make a UI version of the tool. All documents stay local so there is no upload time, and search time is similar to the native binary. Click on a search result to open a preview of the PDF. Any feedback would be much appreciated.

Dockerfile source code (warning: very shit): https://github.com/rawsh/pdfgrep-wasm
