Overview
Combobox provides low-level primitives for building any select-like UI. The built-in
Select, MultiSelect, Autocomplete, and TagsInput components are all built on top of it.
Check for a ready-made component first
Build with Combobox primitives only when none of these fit:
| Need | Use |
|---|---|
| Standard select, multi-select, autocomplete or tags input | Select, MultiSelect, Autocomplete, TagsInput (all support renderOption) |
| Options dropdown attached to a button or any other element, no input | ComboboxPopover (data-driven: data, value, onChange, searchable, multiple) |
| Hierarchical options | TreeSelect (see below) |
| More than a few hundred options | Combobox with useVirtualizedCombobox, see the virtualized pattern |
