What is Find?
The URL bar of web browsers is now a magic wand! We use it a thousand times each day, to search or enter a website's address. With Find, you can use it to start a drawing, make a search on your map application, take a note, add a music to your library. And of course, find what you are looking for directly where you know you'll find an answer.
We use the browser's URL bar as a CLI (command line interface) to complete actions on the web. In Chrome/Chromium, Google calls it the Omnibox. Omni, the Latin prefix meaning "all", or "every", since we use it to input everything.
Find! aims to be a simple way to enhance your experience. Easy to setup and use.
Also, it is free, Free software, and can be customized and hosted at your convenience.
The fastest way to start is to make it your web browser's default search engine; then everything happens in your URL bar.
With Find, you can type:
!m cuba
and it will search for cuba in your default maps web application, here Google Maps.
!y ski
will search on Youtube for ski videos.
There are many more actions, such as:
+draw house
to start a drawing on a draw application such as Google draw
Explore your possibilities and add custom search engines.

Said about Find as an alternative
Bangs are more powerful, it can be search engines and any other action on a site. Default fallback search is on DuckDuckGo, but can be customized to be anything.
Offers Bangs like DuckDuckGo, but more performant and customizable. Default search engine can be Google, or anything else.
Lighter, faster, with different types of customizable Bangs

Find must now be the application I use the most, without noticing it. I added it to all my web browsers, also on my phone. It helps me be more productive, and I love that it can integrate with applications that are not running on any servers, but directly in my browser (like itself)
