A Highly Customizable, easy-to-use, elegant, dropdown component

Feedback would be much appreciated, questions, suggestions, issues are more than welcome.

Demo

Usage:

First

Install via NPM npm i vue-dynamic-dropdown

Second

Require in your project:

var VueDropdown = require('vue-dynamic-dropdown');

or ES6 syntax:

import VueDropdown from 'vue-dynamic-dropdown'

Third

You can register the component globally:

Vue.component('vue-dropdown', VueDropdown);

Or locally in a single Vue component:
