  Indexing and its components
===========================

Indexing deals with collecting data, cleaning, transforming and eventually adding that data to the Solr index.

The extension currently supports two ways of indexing TYPO3 pages. The initial goal was to create a solution in the sense of “**Acts like Indexed Search”,** meaning that the same frontend indexing approach was used.

After releasing the public version it was decided to go an alternative way by introducing an Indexing Queue that indexes pages on demand and offers some more advantages over the frontend indexing approach.
