Complete project is written in plain js, with no external dependencies, and it's size is reduced to mere 6kb.

Installation and Usage

---

Its pretty straight forward.

• Include the js on the head.
• Call the AutoSuggestControl on page load. Alternatively, you can do it on jQuery.ready()

      window.onload = function () {
          var area = new AutoSuggestControl("text-area");    
          }

You can either specify the id of the element or the selected element itself. Thanks to @samshull
