Zinc is a search engine that does full text indexing. It is a lightweight alternative to Elasticsearch written in Go.

It's simple and easy to operate as opposed to Elasticsearch which requires a couple dozen knobs to understand and tune.

How does the search result accuracy compare with elastic search?

@ral_oz Zinc uses BM25 scoring for relevancy which is the same as ES. You can have custom scoring logic as well if you prefer.

Does it also have meta engine capability like ES?

Zinc is a much simpler and lighter alternative to Elasticsearch which requires minimal resources. What are your pain points with elasticsearch that you would like solved?
