Create New Option Inline
A React combobox with inline option creation allowing users to dynamically add new items using Plus icon and CommandEmpty fallback with shadcn/ui
Tags need flexibility—create on the fly. This React combobox uses dynamic item creation with Plus icon from Lucide React allowing users to add custom options inline. Built with shadcn/ui Command and Popover featuring CommandEmpty state for new item creation, state management tracking search input, and duplicate prevention. The pattern appears both when no results exist (CommandEmpty) and as action item below results (CommandSeparator)—perfect for tagging systems, custom categories, user-defined options, or anywhere predefined lists need user extensibility without leaving the interface or opening separate creation dialogs.
