Vanilla JavaScript Dropdown - replacement for <select>

Build Status Coverage Status Dependencies

Tiny (0.7 KB gzipped!) JavaScript replacement for <select> that makes styling easy and consistent.

— Inspired by the blazing fast, lightweight, cross-platform and crazy popular Vanilla JS framework.

How it works

Reads the original <select> element's options (with respect of selected, if any), creates and attaches the pseudo-select just before the original one, and hides the original.

Upon selection it updates the original <select>, so when you submit your form the value will be there.

JavaScript disabled? No problem! Nicely degrades to original <select>.
