plugin to separate tags (like the stackoverflow's input tags interface)

Question

I'm looking for a plugin or simple script that behaves like Stack Overflow's tags input interface.

In particular I need to separate the single words (tags) that people write.

There are plenty:

If you are looking for a styled and ready solution, I'd recommend the first option.

If you are looking for a more flexible and complete solution, the second solution is probably a good fit.

+1 for the first link, since I found it surprisingly difficult to find a good solution through Google. – zenzelezz Nov 08 '11 at 10:33

I tried plenty of scripts, it took one day to find the simple one that does only read tags from an existing array (no JSON), here you go: https://github.com/bastianallgeier/tags – Avatar Sep 20 '13 at 08:59
https://github.com/tovic/tags-input-beautifier ← you could also set predefined values from the original input value and split it with comma, so that it becomes array, e.g. `{values:input.value.split(', ')}` – Taufik Nurrohman Jan 13 '16 at 14:00
You can add [Tagify](https://github.com/yairEO/tagify) to the list – vsync Oct 03 '18 at 08:18
