We could keep vanilla javascript for the part that are executed for each query (lighter file size), but use a JS framework (because working with DOM) for an application that could be used by the end user to customize which are the search engine in their list — and how to backup and "synchronise" their customization between different devices and browsers.

Remember that the objectives of this project are:

  1. never setup search engines preferences again
  2. get a better url bar actions (not only search), without coding a browser extension
  3. possibility to self host this software easily as it is just front-end, so anyone can host their instance and be more in control of their privacy (you odn't get track for each request you do) and the customization of their software

Details

Right now the site consists of one index.html page and a vanilla main.js file.
In a new folder customization, we could have the same setup for a new index.html page, and it would be used to make the user customization application.

This way there will be a separation between the engine and the customization, which don't have the same requirements in term of weight.
