# How to add Search in starter-kit
Search has been implemented in the full-version only. If you have started your project using the starter kit as per our suggestion, please follow the below steps in order to implement search functionality:
- Copy
full-version/src/layouts/components/Autocomplete.tsx
file and paste it in the same path in thestarter-kit
folder
Using fake-db
- Copy the
full-version/src/@fake-db/app-bar-search/index.ts
file &AppBarSearchType
type from thefull-version/src/@fake-db/types.ts
file and paste them into the same paths in thestarter-kit
folder
Not using fake-db
Update the
useEffect
hook (in which API is called usingaxios
) according to the your requirement and also copy theAppBarSearchType
type from thefull-version/src/@fake-db/types.ts
file & paste it in thestarter-kit/src/layouts/components/Autocomplete.tsx
file.Import
starter-kit/src/layouts/components/Autocomplete.tsx
file in thestarter-kit/src/layouts/components/vertical/AppBarContent.tsx
and/orstarter-kit/src/layouts/components/horizontal/AppBarContent.tsx
file(s) and use it in whichever way you want
And this is it. Enjoy searching in the template.
