Tags overflow quickly—visual selection matters. This React multi-select combobox displays selected items as Badge components with X icon from Lucide React inside the trigger using flex-wrap layout. Built with shadcn/ui Command and Popover featuring stopPropagation on badge removal preventing trigger toggle. The inline badge pattern provides immediate visual feedback—perfect for tag selectors, skill pickers, category filters, or anywhere users benefit from seeing all selections at a glance without opening the dropdown understanding their current selections through persistent visual display.
