Markus Heiser b7e315563d [mod] simple theme: collaps/expand elements in the sidebar
Make elements in the sidebar collapse able.  Except infoboxes all elements in
the sidebar are collapsed by default.

By folding out the sidebar elements, the UI looks less cluttered.  Especially on
small devices like smartphones, where the sidebar is above the results list, the
UX should be improved [1].

.. _searx: https://github.com/searx/searx


User experience
---------------

- Reworked (and still simple) theme:

  * Usable on desktop, tablet and mobile.
  * Light and dark versions (available in the preferences).
  * Right-to-left language support.
  * `Screenshots <https://dev.searxng.org/screenshots.html>`_

- The translations are up to date, you can contribute on `Weblate`_
- The preferences page has been updated:

  * Browse which engines are reliable or not.
  * Engines are grouped inside each tab.
  * Each engine has a description.

- Thanks to the anonymous metrics, it is easier to report malfunctioning engines,
  so they get fixed quicker

  - `Turn off metrics on the server
    <https://docs.searxng.org/admin/engines/settings.html#general>`_ if you don't want them recorded.

- Administrators can `block and/or replace the URLs in the search results
  <https://github.com/searxng/searxng/blob/5c1c0817c3996c5670a545d05831d234d21e6217/searx/settings.yml#L191-L199>`_


Setup
-----

- No need for `Morty`_ to proxy images, even on a public instance.
- No need for `Filtron`_ to block bots, as there is now a built-in `limiter`_.
- A well maintained `Docker image`_, now also built for ARM64 and ARM/v7 architectures.
  (Alternatively there are up to date installation scripts.)

.. _Docker image: https://github.com/searxng/searxng-docker


Contributing
------------

- Readable debug log.
- Contributing is easier, thanks to the `Development Quickstart`_ guide.
- A lot of code cleanup and bugfixes.
- Up to date list dependencies.
