Where on docs.platform.sh should be changed?

Search related

What exactly should be updated?

When searching for a keyword in the docs, a "search as you type" panel is displayed.

If the desired result is on the page the user is already browsing, clicking on it in the list of results will scroll the page to the correct anchor in the background. BUT this can easily be missed, as the results panel can be quite large and cover up most of the page. This leaves the user thinking the redirection didn't work/the result can't actually be found.

One solution may be to disable this "search as you type" panel in favour of a proper results page.

Another may be to limit the number of results in the panel and implement navigation buttons in it to avoid hiding so much of the underlying page. But that could only be done after we can improve the quality of displayed results to being with.
