Autocomplete

The Autocomplete component provides suggestions while you type into the field. The component is in essence a text box which, at runtime, filters data in a drop-down by a Filter operator when a user captures a value. You may also enable FreeTyping and AutoComplete can be used to just provide suggestions based on user input.

Installation

The Autocomplete extension is part of the Blazorise.Components NuGet package.
