# Implement Autocomplete using the Nosto Autocomplete library

**Nosto Autocomplete library is designed to simplify the implementation of Search Autocomplete functionality by providing:**

* Autocomplete products, keywords and history visualization.
* Automatic bindings to Nosto Search API.
* Autocomplete component state management.
* Nosto Analytics out of the box, Google Analytics support.
* Default Autocomplete components and templates.
* Keyboard navigation.

The Nosto Autocomplete library is independent from the Search Templates offering which covers Search, Category Merchandising and Autocomplete.

Search Templates offers a hosted development environment based on Visual Studio Web using Preact components for the development of Search and Category Merchandising result pages, as well as Autocomplete experiences. Nosto Autocomplete covers only the Autocomplete part as an independent NPM package and provides integration into various rendering technologies such as React/Preact, Mustache and Liquid.
