Since each item may have a complex UI, you create the items using the itemBuilder callback.

Say you have a class such as

class Person {
  String name;
  String address;
}

Then to show a list of people you would use

// In widget building function...
// Assume `people` is a `List<Person>`.
SimpleAutocompleteFormField<Person>(
  itemBuilder: (context, person) => 
      Column(children: [ Text(person.name), Text(person.address) ]),
  onSearch: (search) async => people.where((person) => 
      person.name.contains(search) || person.address.contains(search)),
)

The itemParser field is not always necessary but is how the text field is filled in when an item is tapped on. If omitted, it just uses the object's toString() method. itemParser.fromString() is how you would decide which Person was selected based on the value in the text field (if they typed in the person's whole name but never tapped an autocomplete suggestion).
