It's designed specifically for autocomplete. The process is three-step: score, filter, sort. . * Supports díåcritîçs. . For example, if searching for "montana" and an item in the set has a value of "montaña", it will still be matched. Sorting will also play nicely with diacritics. . * Smart scoring. . Items are scored / sorted intelligently depending on where a match is found in the string (how close to the beginning) and what percentage of the string matches. . * Multi-field sorting. . When scores aren't enough to go by – like when getting results for an empty query – it can sort by one or more fields. For example, sort by a person's first name and last name without actually merging the properties to a single string. . * Nested properties. . Allows one to search and sort on nested properties so you can perform search on complex objects without flattening them simply by using dot-notation to reference fields (ie. nested.property).
