A Vue.js 3 search input component, inspired by the global search input of Storybook and GitHub.

![](.github/vue-search-input.gif)

The `SearchInput` component displays a search input with some additional features built-in.

**Features:**

- **Focus** on the search input at any time by pressing the `/` key on the keyboard.
- Includes a default CSS styling but it's also easy to bring your own styles too.
- Completely customizable icons via `slots`
- Displays an `x` icon on the right side of the search input, used for **clearing** the text when there's a value typed inside.
- The search text gets cleared by pressing the `esc` key when the search input has focus (configurable).

**_Important:_** It is advisable that you include the `SearchInput` component **only once** on each page.
In case multiple `SearchInput` components are present, the first one being displayed will take focus precedence upon the `/` keypress.

**Demo with examples**
