# vcpkg search | ||
|
||
**The latest version of this documentation is available on [GitHub](https://github.com/Microsoft/vcpkg/tree/master/docs/commands/search.md).** | ||
|
||
## Synopsis | ||
|
||
```no-highlight | ||
vcpkg search [options] [query] | ||
``` | ||
|
||
## Description | ||
|
||
Searches for available packages by name and description. | ||
|
||
Search performs a case-insensitive search through all available package names and descriptions. The results are displayed in a tabular format. | ||
|
||
## Example | ||
```no-highlight | ||
$ vcpkg search zlib | ||
miniz 2.2.0#1 Single C source file zlib-replacement library | ||
zlib 1.2.12#1 A compression library | ||
zlib-ng 2.0.6 zlib replacement with optimizations for 'next generation' systems | ||
``` | ||
|
||
## Options | ||
|
||
All vcpkg commands support a set of [common options](common-options.md). | ||
|
||
### `--x-full-desc` | ||
|
||
**Experimental and may change or be removed at any time** | ||
|
||
Do not truncate long descriptions. | ||
|
||
By default, long descriptions will be truncated to keep the tabular output browsable. | ||
