Context specific search

[Code-DJ]

For a multi-product website, how should we go about creating a single documentation website for all products and make search work?

Right now search shows results for all products no matter where you are in the documentation. This has a side-effect that if you search for "Getting", it shows "Getting Started" in all products without context.

Here's the structure we used:

• pages
  • _meta.json
  • index.mdx
  • product-1 (folder)
    • _meta.json
    • getting-started.mdx
    • :
    • :
  • product-2 (folder)
    • _meta.json
    • getting-started.mdx
    • :
    • :
  • product-3 (folder)
    • _meta.json
    • getting-started.mdx
    • :
    • :

The index.mdx is a landing page with sections for each product (like docs.github.com). It has no sidebar or toc.

The user can click on "Getting Started" under "Product 1" to go to product-1/getting-started.mdx. This page now has a sidebar with docs for everything under "product-1". However, if you search, it displays results across entire system without context having the above mentioned side-effect.

Thanks!
