Tom Select is a dynamic, framework agnostic, and lightweight (~16kb gzipped) <select> UI control. With autocomplete and native-feeling keyboard navigation, it's useful for tagging, contact lists, country selectors, and so on. Tom Select was forked from [selectize.js](https://tom-select.js.org/docs/selectize.js/) with the goal of modernizing the code base, decoupling from jQuery, and expanding functionality.

### Features

[](#features)

- **Smart Option Searching / Ranking**
    Options are efficiently scored and sorted on-the-fly (using [sifter](https://github.com/orchidjs/sifter.js)). Want to search an item's title *and* description? No problem.
- **Caret between items**
    Order matters sometimes. With the [Caret Position Plugin](https://tom-select.js.org/plugins/caret-position), you can use the ← and → arrow keys to move between selected items
- **Select & delete multiple items at once**
    Hold down command on Mac or ctrl on Windows to select more than one item to delete.
- **Díåcritîçs supported**
    Great for international environments.
- **Item creation**
    Allow users to create items on the fly (async saving is supported; the control locks until the callback is fired).
- **Remote data loading**
    For when you have thousands of options and want them provided by the server as the user types.
- **Extensible**
     [Plugin API](https://tom-select.js.org/docs/plugins/) for developing custom features (uses [microplugin](https://github.com/brianreavis/microplugin.js)).
- **Accessible**, **Touch Support**, **Clean API**, ...
