Downshift 🏎. Primitives to build simple, flexible, WAI-ARIA compliant React autocomplete/combobox or select dropdown components. The problem You need an autocomplete/combobox or a select experience in your application and you want it to be accessible. You also want it to be simple and flexible to account for your use cases.
The Downshift component has been developed in order to provide accessibility and functionality to a combobox or autocomplete input, described by its corresponding ARIA accessibility pattern. This is a component that controls user interactions and state for you so you can create autocomplete/combobox or select components.
It returns a set of props that are meant to be called and their results destructured on the combobox's elements: its label, toggle button, input, combobox container, list and list items. The props are similar to the ones provided by the Downshift component to its children via render prop.
It returns a set of props that are meant to be called, and their results destructured on the dropdown's elements: its label, toggle button, list and list items. These are similar to the props provided by vanilla Downshift to the children render prop.
Downshift Hooks. Every React hook offers custom logic to build the kind of dropdown you need. If you need to build a combobox then use useCombobox. However, if you don't need to type a search query and just have a dropdown that is actioned by a button (a select, basically), then use useSelect.
The props are similar to the ones provided by vanilla Downshift to the children render prop. These props are called getter props and their return values are destructured as a set of ARIA attributes and event listeners.
