Description

Highlight words within the cards displayed in the items of a collection when a search is performed.
It could be a good opportunity to use the mark html tag.

Research direction

Start by locating the collection page, its item cards, and the search-result handling in the TypeScript frontend. Verify how matched words are identified, then use the HTML mark element so matching text is visibly highlighted in collection cards; done means the behavior works when a collection search is performed.
