Downshift

Description

Primitives for Accessible Input Components

Overview

Downshift is a collection of primitives designed to help developers create simple, flexible, and WAI‑ARIA compliant React components for item selection.

Functionality

It manages user interactions and state automatically, enabling the construction of autocomplete, combobox, or select dropdown components without handling low‑level logic.

API Design

Downshift employs a render prop approach that offers maximum flexibility with a minimal interface. You are responsible for rendering all elements, while applying the provided props to your markup.
