shadcn.io is an independent project built on shadcn/ui
An Open Command Menu button opens the dialog. Suggestions lists Calendar, Search Emoji, and Calculator, and the field reads Type a command or search...
Use the dialog when the list should cover the page. Keep a short list next to its button in a Popover. In Vue, Ark UI leaves the chosen action to you.

How does this dialog open?
The Open Command Menu button sets an open state to true, and CommandDialog takes that state with its change handler, so Escape or a click outside sets it back. The dialog has a visually hidden title and description.
The Command goes inside CommandDialogContent. When the dialog closes, the demo clears the filter so the whole list is back next time.
What commands are in this menu?
One CommandGroup with the heading Suggestions holds three CommandItems: Calendar, Search Emoji and Calculator. Each item's text is its only content.
Should this be a Command or a Combobox?
Use a Command to run an action or jump somewhere. Use a Combobox when the choice is a value that stays in a form field.
What appears when nothing matches the search?
CommandEmpty in the list says "No results found." It shows only when the search leaves nothing.
How do I run an item from this dialog in Vue?
These items don't run anything yet.
Listen to @value-change on Command, which receives the chosen item's value, and keep value empty so every choice fires. Close the dialog in the same handler.
How do the keys work in this dialog?
The arrow keys move through the items, Enter runs the highlighted one, and typing filters the list. Escape closes CommandDialog, and focus goes back to the button. CommandInput shows "Type a command or search..." until someone types.
The filtering is the demo's: it builds the items with useListCollection and a contains filter, and calls filter with the input's value as it changes.
