I see you use the Zoekt project for code search. Why did you choose this over alternatives and how has been your experience so far?

We went with Zoekt because it is full-featured (it's fast, supports regex, search filters, streamed search, etc.), and is a mature project. Sourcegraph, GitLab, and other large companies use it, so it felt like a safe choice. Overall our experience has been positive - maybe I'll write a blog post about it :)
