First I want to take a moment to say, I’m not affiliated with Myrient/Erista in any way shape or form.

With that out of the way; a friend of mine would say Myrient is basically unusable because it takes too many clicks to find anything. I kinda got tired of hearing about this complaint, so this started as a spiteful shitpost, and has effectively become a fully functional search engine for all of Myrient’s offerings.

Features:

  • Search Suggestions
  • Categories
  • Table Format
  • Paginated Search Results
  • Tune-able settings that get stored in localstorage
  • Automatic crawling of myrient’s file structure
  • Threaded crawling
  • Asynchronous indexer updating.

And you get the point.

Links are below, and it’s open source. If you hate my hosting of it, you are more than welcome to host your own.

Not all categories are filled out, however the categories are determined by what is in the pathname of the file on Myrient, if you want to contribute to the categories.json file to improve the categorization, it would be much appreciated.
