Hi Zahid,
Thank you for reaching out to us.
Since Select2 requires jQuery and combining jQuery with React isn't good practice, Selec2 wasn't included in our React version.
If you want to use Selec2 then you can refer to our HTML version.
Install Selec2 and jQuery npm pacakge. Import selec2 and jQuery globally.
Initialize selec2 gloabally:
$.fn.select2.defaults.set("theme", "bootstrap5");
$.fn.select2.defaults.set("width", "100%");
$.fn.select2.defaults.set("selectionCssClass", ":all:");Then you can initialize your selec2 instance using the code below:
$("your-select-selector).select2();Regards,

Hi Zahid,
You can add this initialization code in src/index.tsx.
