jQuery or Javascript Select menu replacement plugin

Question

I'm a looking for a stable and actively maintained javascript select menu plugin. I've used a few in the past but at some point the maintainer moves on and the github issues begin to stack up...

I've looked at:

• https://github.com/gfranko/jquery.selectBoxIt.js (last release 10/2013)
• https://github.com/select2/select2 (last release 11/2017)
• https://github.com/harvesthq/chosen (last release 6/2018)
• https://jqueryui.com/selectmenu (last release 9/2016)

All of these have their pros and cons - chosen is probably the most actively maintained. At this point I'm looking for any other suggestions from developers who've had first hand experience with other plug-ins like these.

Answer 1

My suggestion is to use Syncfusion JavaScript Dropdown list. It has all the features from select2. It is a commercial product, however, there is a free community license is available
