Description
When searching for a resource and it's not found, we should use fuzzy matching to return possible matches like if the user made a typo.
Contributor guide
First steps
- Read the whole issue, then the project's contributing guide.
- Comment on the issue to say you are picking it up — it saves two people doing the same work.
- Fork the repository and make your change on a branch.
- Open a pull request that references the issue number.
Research direction
The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating the resource-search entry point and the existing not-found handling, then determine how fuzzy matching should select possible matches; done means a search with a typo returns useful alternatives when the exact resource is absent.
