About the Search with Autocomplete template

Search with Autocomplete is a free, hand-built UI component template available on Talos.tools. It ships as plain HTML with Tailwind CSS utility classes — no build step, no framework lock-in, no signup wall, and no watermark. You can drop it straight into any project that already loads Tailwind, or convert it to vanilla CSS in minutes. The template is responsive by default and follows accessible markup practices (semantic landmarks, alt text on images, ARIA labels where needed).

How to use the Search with Autocomplete template

  1. Preview the template in the live editor on this page to see the layout and copy.
  2. Copy the HTML and Tailwind classes from the code panel.
  3. Paste into your project (Astro, Next.js, plain HTML, Laravel, Rails — anywhere that supports Tailwind).
  4. Edit copy, swap imagery, and adjust colors to fit your brand.
  5. Ship to production. No attribution required, no license check, no API key.

When this template fits

Use Search with Autocomplete when you need a polished starting point for a UI component and don’t want to spend hours on the blank-page problem. It’s ideal for indie hackers shipping MVPs, agencies prototyping client work, designers presenting concepts, and developers who’d rather customize a working layout than build one from scratch. If you need a different visual style, swap the color palette in Tailwind config — the structure is independent of the theme.
