Introduction
In version 2 of our design system, the Autocomplete component allowed users to type into an input and see filtered suggestions from a list of options. It provided a convenient way to search and select items dynamically.
Why It’s Discontinued
With the release of version 3 and the introduction of the Dropdown component (which supports an autocomplete property), the standalone Autocomplete component became redundant. By simply setting autocomplete to true on the Dropdown component, you can replicate—if not enhance—the original Autocomplete behavior. This approach consolidates functionality into a single, more flexible component and simplifies the design system.
For additional details on configuring an autocomplete experience, refer to the Dropdown documentation. You’ll find guidelines on how to enable and customize the search behavior directly within the Dropdown component.
