Description

Currently, the leaderboard displays all players in a static format without any ability to filter or search through the list. To improve user experience, I propose adding a search functionality that allows users to quickly find a specific player by typing their name into a search input field.

Research direction
Add a search input field on the leaderboard page that filters players by name. This can be done client side by filtering the existing list or server side by adding a query parameter to the API. Ensure the UI updates dynamically as the user types, and consider adding debounce to reduce requests.
