Hi! We have been looking for a replacement for bootstrap-select and tom-select, and virtual-select seems to be the ideal fit.
Tom-select offers a better search experience than virtual-select, based on my initial testing. Take for example the following string: TOKYO, Japan. In tom-select, I can search for "japan tokyo" and it will match, even if the words are in the opposite order. The same search string will not yield any results in virtual-select.
I assume the tom-select works so great is because it uses sifter for matching strings, but I am not sure.
It's not a deal-breaker since virtual-select offers most, if not all, of the functions we need for our use case.
You can test the search here: Codepen
