React-Searchable-Dropdown

I really didn’t want to build this, but I just couldn’t find a dropdown that handled everything I needed. It started as a project requirement and slowly grew into something that now covers single and multi selection, creating new options if needed (but only if you want), virtualization (no opt out) for big lists, full keyboard support, search with highlighting, and easy styling with plain CSS (no frameworks), no themes to fight against.

I think this gets close to what most people actually need from a dropdown without making you glue together a bunch of separate pieces. Hopefully it saves someone else the time I spent chasing edge cases. Feedback is very much welcome.

I've seen that there's a demo, but the link is kinda small and you need to scroll down on the Website. Adding a small gif to the README showcasing one or more implementations of the component would be cool
luciodale•7mo ago
Will do thanks :)!
luciodale•7mo ago
Also, what sort of implementations would be interesting to see?
Oxodao•7mo ago
Is it possible to use it as an autocomplete (call an API to filter the search) ? I nearly lost my mind last week-end trying to find a good one that was accessible and that didn't required a whole framework to be imported
luciodale•7mo ago
Ah. I'd have to expose `onSearchChange`. I can get it done before EOD :).. will ping you here when I've put an example on the website.
Oxodao•7mo ago
Thanks!
luciodale•7mo ago
There's an example up :) ...

https://github.com/luciodale/react-searchable-dropdown/blob/...

It turned out to be quite simple as I expected.. you can check the demo on the site too

Oxodao•7mo ago
Nice! I'm currently rewriting the frontend of one of my project, I'll try this out in it thanks!
luciodale•7mo ago
OFC :)
