Other packages similar to mobius1-selectr

select2

Select2 is a jQuery-based replacement for select boxes. It supports searching, remote data sets, and infinite scrolling of results. Compared to mobius1-selectr, Select2 is more feature-rich but also heavier due to its jQuery dependency.

chosen-js

Chosen is a JavaScript plugin that makes long, unwieldy select boxes more user-friendly. It supports both single and multi-select options with search functionality. Chosen is similar to mobius1-selectr but has a more classic design and requires jQuery.

selectize

Selectize is a hybrid of a textbox and a select box. It offers tagging, remote data binding, and dynamic dropdowns. Selectize is more versatile than mobius1-selectr but also more complex to configure.

react-select

React-Select is a flexible and customizable select input control for React. It supports multi-select, async options, and custom styling. React-Select is specifically designed for React applications, making it different from the vanilla JavaScript approach of mobius1-selectr.
