How to search the online Swift documentation?

Using Swift
1

Hi,

I am not sure, if I am missing something or there is really no good way to search the Swift online documentation. Let me give you an example:

Let's say I saw somewhere that Swift has a switch statement and I want to learn more about it. So I'd try using the Swift reference documentation (https://docs.swift.org/swift-book/documentation/the-swift-programming-language). But neither using the filter or the symbol search ("/") would lead somewhere. Instead it seems I have to know, that I'd need to look in the "Control Flow" section to find the explanation for the switch statement.

Back in the day, when there was an EPUP available, one could at least use a full text search, but that's not possible using the online doc, right?

Thank you for any hints on how to properly search the online Swift documentation. :slight_smile:

Cheers, Michael

I believe @sofiaromorales is the one who implemented the search, so maybe she can help here. Could the quick navigation be extended to see page contents and not only symbols? Maybe as an opt-in for a catalog that more resembles a book (such as the swift documentation one) than a tradicional framework documentation.
