🔎 Bang Search Redirector

I started watching this video i made my own search engine (kind of), where he builds a similar webpage to use in any browser. Then I challenge myself to build the same concept using github pages.

How to Use

Add as Custom Search Engine

  1. Go to your browser's Search Engine Settings.
  2. Add a new search engine:
    • Name: Bang Search
    • Keyword: ! (or any you like)
    • URL:
      https://bang-search.jonathanoldenburg.github.io?q=%s
      

How to Search

Just use your query followed by a bang code (a ! plus a letter). Example:

how to train a falcon !g

This redirects you to Google with the search "how to train a falcon".


Supported Bang Codes

Code Engine
!g Google
!b Bing
!d DuckDuckGo
!y Yahoo
!s Startpage
!q Qwant
!e Ecosia
!a AOL
!w Wikipedia
!r Reddit
!h DuckDuckGo (HTML)
!m MetaGer
!n Neeva
!z ZoomInfo
!l LinkedIn
!f Facebook
!i Instagram
!t Twitter / X
!p Pinterest
!u YouTube
!c China Daily
!j JSTOR
!k Kagi
!o Openverse

Example: quantum entanglement !j → Searches JSTOR for academic papers on quantum entanglement.

Isn't there better options(built in funcionallity or browser extensions)?

Yes! but this project was just meant to have fun and a little challenge
