# ![alt text](./icons8-kiwi-80.png) react-kiwi-dropdown

A minimal, easy-to-use and highly adjustable dropdown component made with ReactJS.

## Why?

Styling \<select> and \<option> elements is a hassle when creating a custom dropdown.
Many UI component libraries have great dropdown components but these are often heavily styled and not easy to overwrite. **react-kiwi-dropdown** is an easy to use dropdown component which makes overwriting default styles a breeze.

## Props

There's only two required props, **options** and **onChange**.
