First-contributions: Searching of the same term gives different result due to case sensitive search

[Haozhe321]

🐞 Problem


In the screenshot below, searching for javascript and Javascript should return the same result because the user is essentially searching for the same thing. But different results are returned.

🎯 Goal


It's important to be able to search for keywords without having to try all permutations of the uppercase and lowercase. (Imagine searching for Ruby on Rails, Ruby On Rails, Ruby on rails, ruby on rails).

💡 Possible solutions

Make the searches ignore case.

Hi @Haozhe321, thank you for opening this issue. Also, kudos on drafting a good issue. Screenshots are so easy to understand. I wasn't aware of the case sensitivity.
We have a work-in-progress pull request to normalise all the tags. This will partially solve this problem.

I think ignoring case would solve this. Would you like to work on this issue?

[Haozhe321]

Sure, I'm taking a look at it!
