- <p>
- Ahmia is open-source search engine software for Tor hidden service deep
- dark web sites. You can test the running search engine at ahmia.fi. For
- more information see our <a
- href="https://blog.torproject.org/category/tags/ahmiafi">blog post about
- Ahmia's GSoC2014 development</a>.
- </p>
-
- <p>
- Ahmia is a working search engine that indexes, searches, and catalogs
- content published on Tor Hidden Services. Furthermore, it is an environment
- to share meaningful insights, statistics, insights, and news about the Tor
- network itself. In this context, there is a lot of work to do.
- </p>
-
- <p>
- The Ahmia web service is written using the Django web framework. As a
- result, the server-side language is Python. On the client-side, most of the
- pages are plain HTML. There are some pages that require JavaScript, but the
- search itself works without client-side JavaScript.
