Introduction

ClaySelect and ClaySelect.Option are <select> and <option> elements respectivetly that are styled using ClayCSS classes.

ClaySelect represents a control that provides a menu of options (ClaySelect.Option). ClaySelect.Option defines an option in a select list.

Use ClaySelect.Option for wrapping an option item.

			<div className="p-4">
				<ClaySelect aria-label="Select Label" id="mySelectId">
					{options.map((item) => (
						<ClaySelect.Option
							key={item.value}
							label={item.label}
							value={item.value}
						/>
					))}
				</ClaySelect>
			</div>
		</Provider>
	);
}

SelectWithOption

If you use ClaySelect only for simple cases that do not need props for options, you can use <ClaySelectWithOption /> which will have the same result as the previous version.
