• We used Redux Toolkit to manage state.
• http requests are sent with RTK Query.
• Dropdown component is created as a generic component. It has no dependency to character data structure and can be used with a different api & its data structure.
• We created a useCharacter hook to encapsulate the logic related to Redux state.
• When we need to use this component with any other source api, we just need to create a similar hook, like useProducts and define the shape of the Row to display.

It can be used in two ways; with mouse or keyboard.

• Cursor down => open dropdown & change focus to character list & navigate downwards
• Escape => close dropdown
• Cursor up => navigate upwards & when on the top of the list, focus on the input
• spacebar => toggle selection on the list
• Shift + Cursor Up => scroll the list to top & focus on the input

• Shift + Cursor Left => Focus on first selected item
• Cursor Left & Cursor Right => navigate among selected items
• Spacebar => remove item from selection
