Is it?

Up Up Up

Both @mtriff and @jshjohnson have been inactive for over a year and I don't think anyone else has publish rights for this package. I was about to use it myself on a project but changed my mind.

Anyway, because select2 is jquery dependent and also doesn't play really well (at least in my project) with js module system, I finally used Choices and I must say it's way better in every aspect, at least to me. So still reliable for production use.

Last release for select2 was 2020, so Choices is still the better option (even without considering no jQuery dependency).

See select2/select2#6290.

If the author or any collaborator on the project speaks out, I am available to help. Make CR and even implement some of the features of some of the open issues.

Happy to help as well. For the time being we forked it and merged a PR to allow adding choices.

npm package is available as well

@marcelfolaron You should probably also merge the fixes for #1160 for security reasons.

No npm package available yet.

I've been added as a maintainer, and plan todo v11.0.0 beta/rc release early next week and will be closing out issues as they are fixed.
