I just submitted a proposal to DuckDuckGo [here](https://duckduckgo.com/newbang) for a new "bang" for their search syntax. If approved:

`!coddsw search_term`

will trigger the following URL:

`https://software.codidact.com/posts/search?search=search_term`

I did the same for EE Codidact ([here the announcement](https://electrical.codidact.com/posts/285032/288954#answer-288954)).

I chose the prefix `codd` because it was not taken and no existing bang begins with that prefix, so that if someone wants to propose bangs for other Codidact sites, they could use the same prefix. For example `coddphoto` for Photography or `coddphy` for Physics.


Hope this helps a bit.
