AutoComplete

AutoComplete is a searchable dropdown input that allows users to type and filter through options, with support for single or multiple selections. Unlike a basic Select, it provides type-ahead functionality and can allow users to create new options.

Key features:

Type-ahead filtering: Users can type to narrow down options in real-time
Multi-select support: Set multi="true" to allow selecting multiple items
Custom option creation: Enable creatable="true" to let users add new options
Rich customization: Use optionTemplate to create complex option layouts

Using AutoComplete

  <AutoComplete>
    <Option value="1" label="Bruce Wayne" />
    <Option value="2" label="Clark Kent" enabled="false" />
    <Option value="3" label="Diana Prince" />
  </AutoComplete>
</App>
