# Gummy Combobox

> An editable option picker with filtering and collision-aware popup.

- Status: stable
- Licence: MIT
- Catalogue group: Composite inputs

## Installation

```sh
npx shadcn@latest add https://gummyui.dev/r/gummy-combobox.json
```

Combobox is Base-only because Radix does not publish a Combobox primitive.

The shadcn-compatible registry copies editable React, TypeScript, and CSS
into the consuming application; it is not a black-box component runtime.

## Semantics

Base UI combobox, listbox, options, empty state, and form value.

## Keyboard behavior

Typing filters; arrows move options; Enter selects; Escape closes.

## Dependencies

- `@base-ui/react`

The registry resolves shared Gummy style payloads automatically.

## Anatomy and API

Exported React parts:

- `GummyComboboxEmpty`
- `GummyComboboxInput`
- `GummyComboboxInputGroup`
- `GummyComboboxItem`
- `GummyComboboxLabel`
- `GummyComboboxPopup`
- `GummyComboboxPositioner`
- `GummyComboboxTrigger`

Each exported part accepts its underlying native, Base UI, or Radix UI
prop contract. Inspect the canonical source for exact generics.

## Themes, RTL, and reduced motion

- Light and dark modes use the shared semantic and fruit tokens. Set
  `data-theme="dark"` on the root to activate the included dark environment.
- Use the nearest genuine `dir` boundary. Layout uses logical properties;
  any directional key behavior is part of the keyboard contract above.
- Gummy motion styles honor `prefers-reduced-motion: reduce`; preserve visible
  focus, selection, loading, and validation information when motion is reduced.
