Space is limited—counts work everywhere. This React multi-select combobox displays selection count with conditional pluralization (1 skill vs 2 skills selected) in the trigger button. Built with shadcn/ui Command and Popover featuring compact summary replacing individual item display. The count pattern optimizes space—perfect for mobile interfaces, narrow columns, filter dropdowns, or anywhere screen real estate is precious providing selection feedback without overwhelming limited space through concise numerical summary.
