Wouldn't be nice if your github searchbar can suggest typeaheads as you type, and search not just by repo's name, but also by its README?
Introduce SearchGit, a chrome extension to enhance your github searchbar with typeahead suggestions and README search.
Simply click install, open github, refresh the page, and it's ready to go!

- (2025-09-08) Tyler Glawitsch: Saves a lot of time with typeahead, something I'd otherwise see only in very limited form like website history in a URL bar. Combined with search, finding and viewing even previously unvisited repos is more streamlined than the typical redirects and delays. More accurate results also seem to be shown over traditional searches, likely as it cares about READMEs; the regular GitHub site search struggles with too many specifics, but you can be specific with this without worrying about getting zero results.
