As someone who has built search interfaces for a decade now, these are so gorgeous. Really, really nice.

But...do you think you might ever write an adaptor for people to use them with Apache Solr, rather than ElasticSearch? makes puppydog eyes

We've been asked about this a couple of times. It's not a trivial undertaking but it's definitely something on our mind.

If you set up crowdfunding to cover the costs of the dev work, I know people who would chip in.

Can confirm, I'd be one of these people. The amount of time that I spend trying to configure UIs instead of working within the Big Data pipeline is wild. This would probably save me about 20% of my current workload right off the bat if it was ported over to Solr.

This is good feedback, thanks :-)
