flashbang

Self-hosted, near-instant DuckDuckGo-style bang redirector for the address bar.

Webfree

flashbang is a self-hosted bang-style search redirector for the browser address bar, offering over 14,000 DuckDuckGo and Kagi-style shortcuts to jump straight to a site's search results. Unlike other bang tools that load a full page or route through an edge server, it handles the redirect client-side via a Service Worker before the browser starts rendering, with no tracking. It's positioned as a faster take on the Unduck-style bang redirector, aimed at privacy-conscious users who want instant shortcut search.
