Dynamic Single Chip Selections with Vue.js Drop-Down Menus : Dynamic Single Chip Selections with Vue.js Drop-Down Menus” refers to a user interface implementation that uses the Vue.js JavaScript framework to provide a dynamic and interactive drop-down menu for single chip selections. In this implementation, the drop-down menu is populated with a list of options, and the user can select only one option, which is then displayed as a chip. The dynamic aspect of this implementation is powered by Vue.js, which allows for real-time updates to the user interface based on user interactions with the drop-down menu. This design pattern offers a seamless and intuitive way for users to make a single selection from a list of options, making it a valuable tool for any application that requires user input
This code is a Vue.js implementation of a single chip selection drop-down menu. It can be broken down into the following steps:
- The Vue instance is created with the “el” property set to the “#app” div, which serves as the root element for the Vue application.
- The “data” property of the Vue instance is defined to return an object that contains the following properties:
- “items” – an array of options for the drop-down menu
- “selectedItem” – the default selected option
- “showDropdown” – a boolean value that determines whether the drop-down menu is visible or not
- The “methods” property of the Vue instance is defined to return an object that contains the following methods:
- “toggleDropdown” – toggles the visibility of the drop-down menu
- “selectItem” – sets the selected option and closes the drop-down menu
- “remove” – removes the selected option
- The UI is built using HTML and Vue directives, including v-if, v-show, v-for, and @click.
- The “chip” div displays the selected option and has a close button for removing the selected option.
- The “selected-item” div is used to display the selected option and opens the drop-down menu when clicked.
- The “dropdown-list” ul displays the options in the drop-down menu and updates the selected option when clicked.
