What Does Select2 Support That Chosen Does Not?
What Usecases Does Select2 Support
-------------------------------------------------
* Working with large datasets: Chosen requires the entire dataset to be loaded as `option` tags in the DOM, which limits
it to working with small-ish datasets. Select2 uses a function to find results on-the-fly, which allows it to partially
load results.
* Paging of results: Since Select2 works with large datasets and only loads a small amount of matching results at a time
it has to support paging. Select2 will call the search function when the user scrolls to the bottom of currently loaded
result set allowing for the 'infinite scrolling' of results.
* Custom markup for results: Chosen only supports rendering text results because that is the only markup supported by
`option` tags. Select2 provides an extension point which can be used to produce any kind of markup to represent results.
* Ability to add results on the fly: Select2 provides the ability to add results from the search term entered by the user, which allows it to be used for
tagging.
* Enhances native selects with search
* Enhances native selects with a better multi-select interface
* Loading data from javascript: easily load items via ajax and have them searchable
* Nested optgroups: native selects only support one level of nested, Select2 does not have this restriction
* Tagging: ability to add new items on the fly
* Working with large remote datesets: ability to partially load a dataset based on the search term
* Paging of large datasets: easy support for loading more pages when the results are scrolled to the end
* Templating: support for custom rendering of results and selections
