Tag Input

Tag Input is a user interface component that allows users to enter multiple tags or keywords, typically displayed as small, interactive chips or badges. It is commonly used in forms, search interfaces, and content management systems to facilitate multi-label input, categorization, or filtering. The component often includes features like auto-completion, validation, and the ability to remove tags.

Also known as: Tagging Input, Chip Input, Multi-tag Input, Token Input, Badge Input
