A form control known as an "autocomplete component" in React offers potential text input field completions as the user inputs. Users can use it to assist them in choosing a value from a predefined list of choices or to swiftly locate and select a particular value from a vast dataset.  


React autocomplete components can be implemented using several modules and frameworks, including:  

  • React-Autocomplete is a straightforward, compact toolkit for building autocomplete components 
  • Downshift is a versatile, adaptable toolkit for creating React autocomplete and select components 
  • Material-UI, a common UI framework, has an autocomplete element.  
  • React-Select is a feature-rich, highly customizable autocomplete and select a component library.  


To add styles to an autocomplete component with Material-UI in React, you can use the Styles props provided by Material-UI.  


Here is an example of how you could style an autocomplete component:

  return <Paper elevation={8} {...props} />;
};
export default function ComboBox() {
  return (
    <Autocomplete
      id="combo-box-demo"
      options={top100Films}
      getOptionLabel={(option) => option.title}
      style={{ width: 300 }}
      PaperComponent={CustomPaper}
      renderInput={(params) => (
        <TextField {...params} label="Combo box" variant="outlined" />
      )}
    />
  );
}

import React from "react";
import TextField from "@material-ui/core/TextField";
import Autocomplete from "@material-ui/lab/Autocomplete";
import { makeStyles } from "@material-ui/core/styles";

const useStyles = makeStyles({
  paper: {
    border: "5px solid black"
  }
});
export default function ComboBox() {
  const classes = useStyles();
  return (
    <Autocomplete
      id="combo-box-demo"
      options={top100Films}
      getOptionLabel={(option) => option.title}
      style={{ width: 300 }}
      classes={{ paper: classes.paper }}
      renderInput={(params) => (
        <TextField {...params} label="Combo box" variant="outlined" />
      )}
    />
  );
}

Instructions

Follow the steps carefully to get the output easily.

  1. Install the Node.js and React on your IDE(preferable Visual Studio Code).
  2. Create React Application using npx create-react-app foldername.
  3. cd foldername.
  4. npm i @material-ui/core
  5. npm i @material-ui/lab
  6. Open the folder in IDE.
  7. Copy the code using "copy" button above and paste it in App.js (till line no 22) file(remove the earlier code from App.js).
  8. Next add top 100 films,(refer DEMO) also you can try line no 23 to 47 it has a different method to achieve the output.
  9. Open the terminal from IDE.
  10. npm start to run the file.
