# Install and place "nativeselect-003" (Placeholder Required) from VibeUI

## 1. Install first — do not skip, do not recreate
Run this exact command before writing any code:
npx shadcn@latest add https://vibeui.ru/r/nativeselect-003.json

Registry item: https://vibeui.ru/r/nativeselect-003.json
Installs to: components/vibeui/nativeselect-003.tsx (the exact path follows this project's components.json aliases).
npm dependencies: none.
Registry dependencies: none.

Install it from the registry. Do not recreate it from the description,
do not substitute a similar component from another library, and do not
rewrite it to match the project's existing style.

## 2. What it is
A native select with a stand-in for the missing placeholder: the empty option is hidden from the list and an unfilled field shows in muted color.

A native select with a placeholder stand-in and a required choice: the empty state shows through :required:invalid. Zero dependencies, one file, no client JS.

## 3. How to use it
import { Nativeselect003 } from "@/components/vibeui/nativeselect-003"

<Nativeselect003
  label="Return reason"
  placeholder="Choose a reason"
  options={["Wrong size", "Arrived damaged"]}
/>

Read the installed file for the full prop list.

## 4. Where to place it
This is a small inline component. Put it exactly where the user asked,
inside the existing markup. Do not create a new page, section or
wrapper for it. If a similar control already sits in that spot,
replace it instead of adding a second one.

Placement: ___
(The user fills this line in. If it is still blank, ask where to put it
instead of guessing.)

## 5. Keep exactly as installed
- the local --vibeui-nativeselect-003-* palette — do not swap it for your theme tokens
- the stand-in as <option value="" disabled hidden>: the empty value arms required, disabled and hidden take it out of the list
- defaultValue="" on the select itself instead of a selected attribute on the option — React complains otherwise
- the select:required:invalid rule: the muted color of an unfilled field rests on it, with no class at all
- the visually hidden expansion of the asterisk — otherwise speech says "asterisk" instead of "required field"
- the block's own light surface: without it the dark label disappears on a dark background

## 6. You may change
- the field name through label, the stand-in text through placeholder and the choices through options
- the focus color through accent
- the stand-in color through the --vibeui-nativeselect-003-muted variable
- the asterisk glyph and its spoken expansion

## 7. Rules
- Older Safari ignores hidden on an option: the stand-in stays in the list, though disabled still blocks picking it.
- A placeholder is not a label: the label has to stay above the field, or nobody remembers what was asked once a value is picked.
- If there are dozens of options and search is needed, that is a combobox case, not a native list.
- Do not lift the CSS variables into globals.css: the component has to stay a single file.

## 8. Verify
- it renders with no console errors;
- it looks like the preview on the VibeUI page you copied this from;
- if it does not, you changed something listed in section 5 — put it back.

For developers

npx shadcn@latest add https://vibeui.ru/r/nativeselect-003.json

Компонент самодостаточен: один файл, без зависимостей, палитра в локальных переменных --vibeui-nativeselect-003-*. Серверный: из хуков только useId. У select нет атрибута placeholder, поэтому первый пункт всегда выглядит выбранным — здесь роль заглушки играет <option value="" disabled hidden>: она показана в закрытом поле, но недоступна в раскрытом списке. Выбор задаётся через defaultValue="" на самом select, а не атрибутом selected у option: React иначе предупреждает. Пока выбрана заглушка, поле не проходит required, и правило select:required:invalid красит текст приглушённым — состояние «не выбрано» видно без скрипта. Звёздочка помечена aria-hidden, её смысл несёт визуально скрытый текст.

Component source

The same file your agent installs. Here in case you would rather copy it by hand.

import { useId } from "react"
import type { ComponentPropsWithoutRef, CSSProperties } from "react"

export type Nativeselect003Props = Omit<
  ComponentPropsWithoutRef<"select">,
  "children" | "size" | "defaultValue"
> & {
  label?: string
  placeholder?: string
  options?: string[]
  accent?: string
}

// Идея компонента: у select нет placeholder, поэтому первый пункт всегда
// выглядит выбранным — и человек проматывает поле, ничего не выбрав.
// Заглушка сделана пунктом с пустым value, который disabled и hidden:
// он показан в закрытом поле, но недоступен в списке. Пока выбран он,
// select:required:invalid красит текст приглушённым — состояние «пусто»
// видно без единой строчки скрипта.
