  Select,
  SelectContent,
  SelectGroup,
  SelectItem,

  SelectValue,
} from "@/registry/base/ui/select";

const items = Object.values(timezones).flat();

    <Select items={items} defaultValue="europe-istanbul">
      <SelectTrigger size="sm" className="w-45">
        <SelectValue />
      </SelectTrigger>
      <SelectContent>
        <SelectGroup>
          <SelectLabel>Europe</SelectLabel>
          {timezones.Europe.map((zone) => (
            <SelectItem key={zone.value} value={zone.value}>
              {zone.label}
            </SelectItem>
          ))}
        </SelectGroup>
        <SelectSeparator />
        <SelectGroup>
          <SelectLabel>America</SelectLabel>

            <SelectItem key={zone.value} value={zone.value}>
              {zone.label}
            </SelectItem>

API reference

Select

Extends the Base UI Select Root — all its props apply.

Prop	Type	Default
`items`	`Record<string, ReactNode> \| { label, value }[]`	—
`value` / `defaultValue`	item value (array when `multiple`)	—
`onValueChange`	`(value) => void`	—
`multiple`	`boolean`	`false`
`disabled` / `required` / `readOnly`	`boolean`	`false`

When items is given, SelectValue renders the matching item’s label instead of the raw value.

SelectTrigger

Extends the Base UI Trigger.

Prop	Type	Default
`size`	`"default" \| "sm"`	`"default"`

Renders through Select.Portal → Select.Positioner → Select.Popup, and always sets alignItemWithTrigger={false} on the Positioner so the popup opens as a plain dropdown below the trigger instead of the Base UI default, which overlaps the selected item on the trigger like a native macOS select.

SelectValue, SelectItem, SelectGroup, SelectLabel, SelectSeparator, SelectScrollUpButton, SelectScrollDownButton

Styled Base UI parts. SelectItem takes the option value (and disabled); the scroll buttons appear automatically when the list overflows.
