title: select

The select widget allows you to pick a string value from a dropdown menu.
- **Name:** `select`
- **UI:** select input
- **Data type:** string or array
- **Options:**
- `default`: accepts a string; defaults to an empty string. Accepts an array of strings and defaults to an empty array with `multiple: true` enabled.
- `options`: (**required**) a list of options for the dropdown menu; can be listed in two ways:
- string values: the label displayed in the dropdown is the value saved in the file
- object with `label` and `value` fields: the label displays in the dropdown; the value is saved in the file
- `multiple`: accepts a boolean; defaults to `false`
- **Example** (options as strings):
```yaml
- label: "Align Content"
name: "align"
widget: "select"
options: ["left", "center", "right"]
```
- **Example** (options as objects):
```yaml
- label: "City"
name: "airport-code"
widget: "select"
options:
- { label: "Chicago", value: "ORD" }
- { label: "Paris", value: "CDG" }
- { label: "Tokyo", value: "HND" }
```
- **Example** (multiple):
```yaml
- label: "Tags"
name: "tags"
widget: "select"
multiple: true
options: ["Design", "UX", "Dev"]
default: ["Design"]
```
