// [Joshen] We initially thought of building out our search using Algolia directly,
// but eventually decided to just use DocSearch since it provides us a UI and some
// configurations out of the box (e.g Doc hierarchy).

// As such when creating the search object, the properties that are specifically read
// by DocSearch are "type" and "hierarchy". The rest, though saved into Algolia (which we
// can potentially use to craft more nuanced search experiences) are not used by DocSearch

// Note that we'll need to do a general clean up of the files in the docs
// A lot of them are not even linked to within the docs site, so just need to
// double check if they can be removed or if we want them in the side bars.
