@pernielsentikaer I've completely overhauled it... and updated details. Hope it suits/is better 😅

Includes:

• Refactor/typescriptifying of node-spotlight dependency (i brought it in as a local-lib and updated it for tsx, added AbortController support and a few other tweaks) and used usePromise() to then call it.

The speed should be improved (the only slight delay remaining is due to the reccommended throttle prop)... I changed the logic to further improve performance by scoping the underlying query, rather than filtering results once returned.
