-- Server-side filtering for large datasets
-- Complex custom search algorithms
-- Debounced API calls
-- Multi-field search logic

+- **`filter={false}`** disables client-side filtering so items appear exactly as the server returns them
+- **`searchValue` + `onSearchChange`** give you control over the search input; debounce and fetch on your side
+- **`items`** is reactive — replace it with server results and the list updates automatically
+- **`isLoadingItems`** shows a loading spinner in the search input suffix while fetching
+- **`emptyLabel`** can be used to customize the empty state message (e.g. `"Loading items..."` during initial load)
+- Debouncing is the consumer's responsibility (300-500ms is typical)

-#### Approach 2: Controlled Search Input
-
-Use `searchValue` and `onSearchChange` for complete control over the search behavior:
+When items come from a backend API, use `filter={false}` with controlled search to let the server handle filtering. Items are replaced when the response arrives, and `isLoadingItems` shows a subtle spinner in the search input while the fetch is in flight.
 
 ```jsx
+const [items, setItems] = useState(initialItems);
 const [searchValue, setSearchValue] = useState('');
+const [isLoadingItems, setIsLoadingItems] = useState(false);
 
-// Simulate debounced search
-const [processedSearch, setProcessedSearch] = useState('');
-useEffect(() => {
-  const timer = setTimeout(() => setProcessedSearch(searchValue), 300);
-  return () => clearTimeout(timer);
-}, [searchValue]);
-
-const filteredFruits = useMemo(() => {
-  if (!processedSearch.trim()) return allFruits;
-  return allFruits.filter((fruit) =>
-    fruit.label.toLowerCase().includes(processedSearch.toLowerCase())
-  );
-}, [processedSearch]);
+const handleSearchChange = useCallback((value) => {
+  setSearchValue(value);
+  setIsLoadingItems(true);
+  debouncedFetch(value)
+    .then(setItems)
+    .finally(() => setIsLoadingItems(false));
+}, []);
 
 <FilterPicker
-  label="Select Fruits"
-  placeholder="Choose fruits..."
-  selectionMode="multiple"
+  items={items}
   searchValue={searchValue}
+  onSearchChange={handleSearchChange}
   filter={false}
-  items={filteredFruits}
-  onSearchChange={setSearchValue}
+  sortSelectedToTop={false}
+  isLoadingItems={isLoadingItems}
+  placeholder="Search items..."
+  selectionMode="multiple"
+  onOpenChange={(isOpen) => {
+    if (!isOpen) {
+      setSearchValue('');
+      setItems(initialItems);
+    }
+  }}
 >
-  {(fruit) => (
-    <FilterPicker.Item key={fruit.key}>{fruit.label}</FilterPicker.Item>
+  {(item) => (
+    <FilterPicker.Item key={item.id} textValue={item.name}>
+      {item.name}
+    </FilterPicker.Item>
   )}
 </FilterPicker>
 ```
 
-**When to use each approach:**
-- **`filter={false}`**: Simpler approach when you just need to pre-filter items without controlling the search input itself. Good for server-side filtering or custom filter logic.
-- **Controlled Search**: Use when you need full control over the search input (debouncing, external UI sync, clearing from outside, or tracking search analytics).
-- **Combine Both**: You can use both together for maximum control - controlled search input with external filtering.
+**How it works:**
+- **`filter={false}`** disables client-side filtering so items are shown exactly as the server returns them
+- **`searchValue` + `onSearchChange`** give you control over the search input; debounce and fetch on your side
+- **`items`** is a reactive prop — replace it with server results and the list updates automatically
+- **`isLoadingItems`** shows a loading spinner in the search input suffix while fetching
+- **`sortSelectedToTop={false}`** is recommended when the server controls item order
+- **`emptyLabel`** can be used to customize the empty state message (e.g. `"Loading items..."` during initial load)
+- **Reset on close** — use `onOpenChange` to restore the initial item set and clear the search when the popover closes, ensuring the trigger label resolves correctly
+
+**Tips:**
+- Debouncing is the consumer's responsibility (300-500ms is typical)
+- During the debounce delay, old items remain visible — if you want instant client-side feedback while waiting, use a filter function instead of `false`
