And when you're ready to do indexed search, Zoekt (over which Sourcegraph graciously took maintainership a while ago) is the best way to do it that I've found. After discounting both Livegrep and Hound (they both struggled to perform in various dimensions with the amount of stuff we wanted indexed, Hound moreso than Livegrep), we migrated to Zoekt from a (necessarily) very old and creaky deployment of OpenGrok and it's night and day, both in terms of indexing performance and search performance/ergonomics.

Sourcegraph of course adds many more sophisticated features on top of just the code search that Zoekt provides.
