Hi there, I ❤️ your library. It's clean and easy to use.

Can you help me with understanding how to:

Multi-select items in the Autocomplete list.
Load dynamic data that will probably be paginated. here is the kind of implementation I am trying to do. I am also looking into react useQuery

appreciate your guidance. 😄

Thanks,

For creating a multiselect autocomplete list you can just modify the Autocomplete component and pass it in the config object.

Same approach can be used for infinite scroll, you can use react-query useInfinteQuery hook for this it is simple and easy to use . I will be adding sample codes for these scenarios soon in the documentation.

Hi, can you share a snippet of autocomplete component where multi-select works?

I was trying to achieve this functionality and it looks like we need to modify both CustomAutoComplete and CustomTextInput. CustomAutoComplete will help us make the multi-selection and CustomTextInput should help us see those selections inside the TextInput. I am trying to change the TextInput to Chip component so its looks better. Here is the UI I am trying to achieve.

However, I am still facing issues in passing the options. Looks like I have to pass the options directly to the config object. If I do so I am unable to make the paginated API call in the selection screen.
