Framework
UI library

Suggestions with icons, then Settings with shortcut hints such as ⌘P. The icons help people scan the list, and the hints teach the keys for next time. The menu sits in the page, always open, with no trigger. In React, Base UI handles the keyboard navigation.

FAQ

How is this menu placed on the page?

Command has h-auto w-full max-w-lg rounded-lg border shadow-md: it sits in the page flow, up to a max width, with a border and a shadow. The list is always open and there is no trigger.

Which items show an icon, and which show a shortcut?

Every item has an icon. The Suggestions group holds Calendar, Search Emoji and Calculator. The Settings group holds Profile, Billing and Settings, each with a shortcut label: ⌘P, ⌘B and ⌘S.

Do those shortcut hints fire the keys?

No. CommandShortcut is a label at the end of the row, and the item's check mark stays hidden while it's there. Listen for those keys yourself if Profile, Billing or Settings should run from the keyboard.

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 menu in React?

These items don't run anything yet. Pass onSelect to each CommandItem.

How do the keys work in this menu?

The arrow keys move through the items, Enter runs the highlighted one, and typing filters the list. CommandInput shows "Type a command or search..." until someone types. Command filters and ranks the items by their text on its own.
