Hello Everyone 👋, We’re building a React Native Android app where we need to integrate fast, customizable search using Typesense. After researching a bit, we decided to go with: •
react-instantsearch
typesense-instantsearch-adapter
In our setup: • We are only using the InstantSearch hooks like
useSearchBox
,
useInfiniteHits
(no DOM widgets). • We are using the Typesense InstantSearch Adapter as a bridge to query our Typesense cloud hosted server. • All UI is built using React Native components like
TextInput
,
FlatList
, etc. Everything is working as expected. Question: Is this the recommended approach to build a Typesense-powered search UI in React Native using InstantSearch? Or do anyone have a more optimal way ? Our goals: • Minimize boilerplate • Ensure future compatibility • Keep flexibility for custom UI • Ability to integrate all Typesense features such as facets, semantic search, etc. Thanks in advance for your input — and appreciate the amazing work you all do with Typesense !
