Hello, I am wondering if i would like to create a htmx active search with datomic backend How would datomic fit into this, or how would i do a fulltext search accross multiple attributes? In SQLite i would have to Create a FTS5 Table. Or would i have to use something like ElasticSearch or meilisearch?

Lucene is a great tool for something like this. As soon as you start doing information retrieval based systems though it becomes a full time job. Depending how much data you need indexed, lucene + datomic peers in the same JVM can get you amazingly far.
