Description of the change
Initial design and implementation of doing full text searching across kiwix libraries. This change required deploying our own managed kiwix server within the 'staging' development environment so that we could manage Kiwix's API to perform full text searching.
Things to note
A Kiwix server was set up to provide control and customization over our search functionalities.
Libraries will need to be manually downloaded to the Kiwix server as part of the setup and maintenance process.
We need to ensure sufficient disk space is allocated on the server for storing library zim files--could grow significantly depending on the number of zim files downloaded.
