• ✅ Debounced queries — stale responses automatically discarded
• ✅ Match highlighting (custom color/bold)
• ✅ maxSuggestions cap, custom field decoration, hint text

Installation

dependencies:
  prism_search: ^0.1.0

Quick start

PrismSearch<String>(
  items: ['Dart', 'Flutter', 'Firebase'],
  itemLabel: (item) => item,
  onSelected: (item) => print('picked $item'),
)

Drop it anywhere in your tree. On phones, tapping the field opens a full-screen search page; on wider windows, suggestions drop down beneath the field.

Async backend

PrismSearch<Book>(
  onSearch: (query) => api.searchBooks(query),
  itemLabel: (book) => book.title,
  debounce: const Duration(milliseconds: 300),
)

Rapid keystrokes are debounced, and slower earlier responses are ignored so the UI never shows stale results.

Highlighting

PrismSearch<String>(
  items: tags,
  itemLabel: (t) => t,
  highlightStyle: const PrismSearchHighlightStyle(color: Colors.deepPurple),
)
