That is almost exactly what lunr is doing. It tokenises the input text, stems the tokens and filters out any stop words. The index it can be searched, the order is not relevant, a prefix search is currently used so that you can find documents containing terms without having to type the whole term exactly. The matching documents are also scored as to how relevant they are to the search term.

In the future I want to add even more powerful querying, restricting search to specific fields, taking into account the distance between terms, and adding faceted search to reduce the total documents being searched over.

One of the original goals of the project was specifically to provide a better alternative to just using the browsers built in find-in-page functionality
