⏳ Search List Text

Filter a list for the given text and provide the formatted results with matched text to be boldable

• Filter any list by a text field
• Framework agnostic, can be used in React, Angular, Vue etc.
• Flexible so that any styles can be applied
• Bolded text works for case insensitive matches
