BetterSearch Extension

Supercharge your search within Intra42 with our Fuzzy Search Extender Chrome extension! Seamlessly incorporate fuzzy matching into your search experience on intra.42.fr, making the search process more flexible and forgiving.

This extension improves the existing search function on intra.42.fr by applying a fuzzy matching algorithm to your queries. With fuzzy matching, you don't need to type in exact search phrases to find what you're looking for. Instead, the algorithm considers approximate string matches, allowing for minor errors such as misspellings, transpositions, and incomplete phrases.
