## Search Strategy by Category
|
|
|
|
### Development (Code)
|
|
Start specific, broaden if needed:
|
|
1. `"python async"` (specific)
|
|
2. `"python"` (broader)
|
|
3. `"scripting"` (broadest)
|
|
|
|
### Infrastructure (DevOps)
|
|
Include the action:
|
|
1. `"docker deploy"` (action + tool)
|
|
2. `"kubernetes helm"` (tool + subtool)
|
|
3. `"ci-cd github"` (concept + platform)
|
|
|
|
### Tooling (CLI/Services)
|
|
Try the tool name directly:
|
|
1. `"stripe"` (service name)
|
|
2. `"payment"` (domain if name fails)
|
|
|
|
## Domain Combinations

|
|
> - Storing data (databases)?
|
|
> - Analyzing data (pandas, visualization)?
|
|
> - Moving data (ETL, pipelines)?"
