About

List.js is a lightweight vanilla JavaScript library that enhances HTML lists, tables, and other elements with client-side search, sorting, and filtering functionality.

It works directly on existing markup using simple class-based configuration, supports fuzzy search, pagination, column-specific search, dynamic item add/edit/remove through a templating system, and can handle thousands of items in the browser.

Select2 is a jQuery-based replacement for HTML select elements that enhances dropdown inputs with advanced search and selection capabilities.

It supports client-side and remote data sources via AJAX, infinite scrolling of results for large datasets, tagging and tokenized selections, multi-select functionality, and customizable theming.
