Should have mentioned that I made a generic Blade component from it (it was a Laravel project)

Copying still happened, take that as you will - in this case that was the problem :) Might be my implementation was not generic enough, but tbh the colleague was not especially proficient at JS. We had a productive conversation about this, but this particular project ultimately was lost by my former employer. The reason was not this autocomplete component though :)
