I've run into an issue with the EXB search widget. When a name is spelled correctly—say, "Virginia"—the widget returns results for all instances of that first name across different last names, which is expected.

However, I'd like the search to also return results for close matches when the name is slightly misspelled (e.g., "Virgnai" or "Verginia"). In other words, I'm looking for fuzzy search or typo-tolerance functionality.

If anyone has implemented this in Experience Builder using Arcade or a custom widget, I'd appreciate any tips or examples you can share!
