This is the first stable version of the "DataProxy" app, a new data intermediary that integrates with other apps, typically via an iframe. Its purpose is to offer functionalities based on local access to data stored in a PouchDB synchronized with CouchDB.
The first of these functionalities is search: an index is built from the local PouchDB, enabling efficient searches across files, directories, contacts, and apps.
A SharedWorker is used to share the storage and search index across tabs: if you open n tabs using DataProxy, there will only be a single instance of the SharedWorker, and thus a single search index, preventing unnecessary resource consumption.
Currently, the Home web app is the only app integrating DataProxy and enabling this search functionality. Upcoming integrations include Drive and AA.
