## What it is
cmdk is a fast, unstyled React component for building command menus (⌘K palettes) that also works as an accessible combobox. It provides a fully composable API with automatic filtering and sorting of rendered items.

## Use cases
- add a command palette to a react app
- build a cmd+k search menu
- create an accessible combobox with filtering
- implement a spotlight-style quick action menu
- render grouped searchable lists in react
- build a dialog-based command menu

## When to choose
- you need an unstyled, composable command menu you can fully theme yourself
- you want automatic filtering, sorting, and keyboard accessibility out of the box
- you're building with React and want a battle-tested component (used by Vercel, Linear-style apps)

## When to avoid
- you need a pre-styled, batteries-included command palette
- your project isn't React-based
- you need a full autocomplete/typeahead with async remote suggestions
