## What it is
A React component library for building fast, accessible, and customizable command palettes (⌘K menus) in web applications. It provides composable components with built-in search filtering, multi-page navigation, and dark/light mode support.

## Use cases
- add a cmd+k command palette to my react app
- build a searchable quick-action menu for my web application
- let users navigate my app with keyboard shortcuts
- create a spotlight-style search overlay in react
- implement multi-page command menus with nested navigation
- add an accessible command launcher with dark mode support

## When to choose
- you need a polished, accessible command palette in a React project
- you want composable components rather than a rigid prebuilt widget
- you need built-in fuzzy search filtering and multi-page support
- you want dark/light mode out of the box

## When to avoid
- your project does not use React
- you need a command palette for a native desktop or mobile app
- you want a fully prebuilt palette with zero composition
- you need a framework-agnostic or vanilla JS solution

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: stable
