Get hands-on experience by building a fully functional search experience using Algolia.

Become an API Integrator

In this module, you will learn how the Algolia API works by understanding its main components. The end goal is for you to be able to integrate Algolia into your application to deliver tailored, fast search experiences.

In the first half, you will learn how to build a full search experience using Algolia's search API and by utilizing Algolia's InstantSearch library. In the second half, you will learn how to extend Algolia's widgets by building a custom search experience.

Getting Started with Algolia API

## Introduction to Algolia
As users browse the internet, one of the first things they come across is Google Search, a feature that allows users to search for anything. 

Similarly, one of the most important parts of any user experience on a website/web app is its search functionality, which allows for fast and easy user interaction.

In this course, we will look into Algolia search API and learn how to integrate it into our React application using `InstantSearch` library through a step-by-step implementation walkthrough. For integration, Algolia provides us production-ready UI widgets that let us quickly build an instant search experience in our application.
