A dropdown for filtering by Component with a decent search experience #294

Originally posted by **bkuzma** February 13, 2024 I'm in the Codecov UI looking at the master branch of a repo and I'm looking to filter by Component. Typing to search in the component dropdown seems to only give me results of **exact** matches. For example, I have a component called `foo-bar` and another called `foo-bar-ui`. * If I type `foo`, I don't see either result. * If I type `bar`, I don't see either result. * If I type If I type `foo-bar`, I only see the `foo-bar` result even though it's a substring of `foo-bar-ui`. Additionally, it's quite surprising to encounter such limitations in the search functionality, especially considering the fundamental nature of this UX feature. A more robust and flexible search experience would greatly enhance usability for users dealing with multiple components or complex project structures.
