## What it is
A dependency-free Vue.js component providing single select, multiselect, tagging, and searchable dropdown functionality. Version 3 is compatible with Vue 3 and supports v-model, Vuex, async options, and full configurability.

## Use cases
- add a searchable dropdown to a vue form
- let users select multiple options with tags
- build a tagging input in vue
- create async select with suggestions
- replace native select with a customizable dropdown

## When to choose
- you need a mature, zero-dependency select component for Vue 2 or Vue 3
- you need tagging, filtering, or async option loading out of the box
- you want v-model and Vuex support in a form control

## When to avoid
- you use React, Angular, or another non-Vue framework
- you need a full-featured headless combobox with custom rendering beyond what props allow
- your project uses a different UI library that already ships a select component

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: stable
- function: ui-components, form-handling
- domain: frontend, web-development
- platform: -
- tags: vue, vue3, multiselect, dropdown, tagging, select-component, web-server, nodejs
