Autocomplete
Suggest options as users type
What it solves
Autocomplete helps users quickly find and select values from predefined options as they type. Autocomplete combines text input flexibility with dropdown-style selection, providing real-time suggestions matching user input. This pattern reduces errors, speeds data entry, and improves form completion.
When to use
- Users select from large sets of predefined options (country selection, airport codes)
- Users need faster option selection than scrolling through long dropdowns
- Reducing errors by guiding users to valid input options
- Input has finite, known valid responses
- Combining free text input with suggestion functionality
When to avoid
- Fewer than 10 options exist (use standard dropdown/select instead)
- Users enter completely free-form text without restrictions
- All options need simultaneous visibility for comparison
- Network latency significantly delays suggestion results
- Input field requires exact, verbatim text entry (passwords)
Implementation workflow
- Confirm the pattern matches the problem and constraints before copying the example.
- Start from the anatomy and examples in
references/pattern.md, then choose the smallest viable variation. - Apply accessibility, performance, and interaction guardrails before layering visual polish.
- Use the testing guidance to verify behavior across keyboard, screen reader, responsive, and failure scenarios.
Accessibility guardrails
- Ensure the input is labeled and announced as a combobox (
role="combobox",aria-expanded,aria-controls). - Support full keyboard interaction:
ArrowUp/ArrowDown,Enter,Escape, andTab. - Expose active option context with
aria-activedescendantand stable option IDs. - Announce loading, empty, and error states to screen readers.
- Keep suggestions readable with strong contrast and visible focus styles.
