autoComplete.js is a lightweight (~3.7 KB gzipped), zero-dependency autocomplete library written in pure vanilla JavaScript. It provides a fast, highly customizable suggestion engine that works with input, textarea, and contentEditable elements and is WAI-ARIA compliant.
Use cases
- add autocomplete suggestions to a search input
- lightweight typeahead dropdown without dependencies
- autocomplete for contentEditable fields
- accessible search suggestions with WAI-ARIA support
- drop-in autocomplete for any framework or plain HTML
- debounced search-as-you-type suggestions
When to choose
- you need a tiny, dependency-free autocomplete that works anywhere
- you want a drop-in solution without React or jQuery
- accessibility (WAI-ARIA) and diacritics support matter
- you need lifecycle events and a plugin API for customization
When to avoid
- you need a full select/multi-select component rather than autocomplete
- you want a React-idiomatic solution like Downshift or react-select
- you need server-side search infrastructure rather than a UI component
