Adding search functionality in Next.js 14 applications is a great feature for users and their user experience.

Next.js makes adding search functionality easy to do.

Mainly with the help of three hooks that they offer. useSearchParams, usePathName & useRouter hook.

Using a mix of client and server components is how we will get this search bar completed so we can query through a database and then fetch the necessary data we need for the user in a secure way.
