Why is it not recommended to use select and how to replace it correctly?

Question

css

Hello!
there is a need to use a form with 3 selects in which you need to select the make, model, year of manufacture of the car, and as a result, get a list of matching keys. I decided to use bootstrap and read this thing
getbootstrap.com/components/#input-groups

Avoid using elements here as they cannot be fully styled in WebKit browsers.

but what about then? I planned using angular (ng-repeat) to fill and filter in it to make a selection, but if you do not use selects, how to do it wisely. I googled and didn't find anything fancy. Maybe I'm looking in the wrong direction? tell me who had experience in creating such selections and filters

Answer 1

Discover Angular-UI and specifically Angular-UI ui-select

Answer 2

select2 and chosen to the rescue

Answer 3

Not recommended because they may look different in different OS and browsers.
You can take something like this https://select2.github.io/examples.html
