Every package SearXNG depends on, ranked by repo health score.
SearXNG is a free, open-source metasearch engine that pulls results from over 250 search services — including Google, Bing, DuckDuckGo, Qwant, Brave, and Yahoo — while guaranteeing zero user tracking or profiling. Every query is forwarded to external engines anonymously, with no cookies, no IP logging, and no persistent session data stored on the server.
Designed for both public deployment and private self-hosting, SearXNG supports containerized installation via Docker and Podman, traditional setups with uWSGI or Granian, and reverse proxy configurations with NGINX or Apache. An administration interface and settings system let operators configure which engines are active, set safe search defaults, define rate limits, and tune the experience per deployment.
The project is community-driven, with an active development pace averaging over 77 commits per month, support for 58 languages via Weblate, and over 70 public instances listed on searx.space. A modular plugin and answerer system lets developers extend result processing, add custom engines, or modify how results are ranked and presented.
For individuals and organizations seeking to reclaim search privacy without sacrificing result breadth, SearXNG represents the most mature and actively maintained self-hostable option in the metasearch space.
