Hey!

Yea that is correct - in its current state, it's functionally a UI wrapper on top of the zoekt-webserver api. One of the reasons why we decided to go with a separate app is that we have much more experience with Typescript, React, and NextJS (the web framework we are using), so it felt like we could move allot quicker using what we know.

In terms of semantic search, that is still very early days - my intuition is that having a separate "semantic code indexer" server written in Python would again allow us to move quickly (since all of the ML libraries are written in Python).
