    <div class="flex items-center gap-2 px-2 py-1">
      <span class="text-lg">{option.emoji}</span>
      <span class="flex-1">{option.label}</span>
      {#if isSelected}
        <span class="text-sm text-green-600 font-medium">✓</span>
      {/if}
    </div>
  {/snippet}
</Select>

// Key Features:
// • bind:value receives string[] instead of string
// • Input shows "X items selected" for multiple selections
// • Dropdown stays open for continued selection
// • Use Space to toggle items, Escape to close
// • Selected items highlighted with visual indicators

API Integration Example

let selectedValue = $state("");

<Select 
  options={[]}
  bind:value={selectedValue}
  url="/api/countries"
  transform={(data) => data.map((country: any) => ({
    value: country.countryCode,
    label: `${country.countryName} (${country.region})`
  }))}
  placeholder="Select a country..."
/>

// How it works:
// 1. Component mounts and automatically calls /api/countries
// 2. API returns: [{ countryCode: 'US', countryName: 'United States', region: 'North America' }, ...]
// 3. Transform maps each item to Select format: { value: 'US', label: 'United States (North America)' }
// 4. Dropdown stays closed until user clicks (no auto-open for initial data)
// 5. No searchParam needed = static data loading mode

Disabled State

<Select 
  options={options}
  value="option2"
  placeholder="Choose an option"
  disabled
/>

// Features:
// • Input cursor changes to default (no pointer)
// • Dropdown cannot be opened
// • Maintains visual consistency with disabled styling
