## What it is
Textcomplete is a TypeScript library that adds autocomplete functionality to HTMLTextAreaElement, contenteditable elements, and CodeMirror editors. It is organized as a monorepo of packages including a core engine and editor adapters.

## Use cases
- add mention autocomplete to a textarea
- implement emoji or hashtag suggestions in a comment box
- autocomplete in contenteditable rich text editors
- add autocomplete to CodeMirror editors
- build custom dropdown suggestion UI for text inputs

## When to choose
- you need autocomplete in plain textareas or contenteditable elements
- you want a small, framework-agnostic autocomplete engine
- you need CodeMirror autocomplete support

## When to avoid
- you need a full-featured rich text editor with built-in autocomplete
- you want a framework-specific component with React/Vue bindings out of the box
- you need active development and frequent updates

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: maintenance
- function: ui-components, form-handling
- domain: web-development, frontend, text-editors
- platform: browser
- tags: autocomplete, textarea, contenteditable, codemirror, typescript, nodejs
