Note that Select only works on Native using the Adapt component to adapt it to a Sheet. See below for docs.

value

string

Select.ItemText

Extends Paragraph. Used inside Item to provide unselectable text that will show above once selected in the parent Select.

Select.Sheet

When used alongside <Adapt />, Select will render as a sheet when that breakpoint is active.

This is the only way to render a Select on Native for now, as mobile apps tend to show Select very differently from web and Tamagui wants to present the right abstractions for each platform.

See Sheet for more props.

Must use Select.SheetContents inside the Select.Sheet.Frame to insert the contents given to Select.Content

import { Select } from 'tamagui' // or '@tamagui/select'

export default () => (
  <Select defaultValue="">
    <Select.Trigger>
      <Select.Value placeholder="Search..." />
    </Select.Trigger>

    <Adapt when="sm" platform="touch">
      {/* or <Select.Sheet> */}
      <Sheet>
        <Sheet.Frame>
          <SheetContents />
        </Sheet.Frame>
        <Sheet.Overlay />
      </Sheet>
    </Adapt>

    <Select.Content>
      <Select.ScrollUpButton />
      <Select.Viewport>
        <Select.Group>
          <Select.Label />
