Feature Description

Please add a search field in header, like Github has or as shown in the screenshot (Schematic search field).
I have this, but everytime you update the layout my custom template breaks...

Behavior of the field should be as follows:
TERM + Enter: you land on the repo search site with the given term
org:TERM + Enter: you land on the org search site with the given term searched
code: TERM + Enter: You land on the code search site with the given term searched.

It makes accessibility so much better. Think you are in a repo but want to chickly search for another. Without this functionality you always have to go to the dashboard or to explore.

It doesn't seem to be as simple as a UI change, and TBH I don't have much time on it. Maybe someone who has interests could try to implement it.

It's very welcome to submit PRs, as always, then 2 approvals from maintainers can merge the PR, so the PR's code needs to be reviewable/maintainable and have tests for large changes. Thank you very much! 🙏
