# @algolia/autocomplete-core
The [`autocomplete-core`](https://www.algolia.com/doc/ui-libraries/autocomplete/api-reference/autocomplete-core/createAutocomplete) package is the foundation of Autocomplete. It exposes primitives to build an autocomplete experience.
You likely don’t need to use this package directly unless you’re building a [renderer](https://www.algolia.com/doc/ui-libraries/autocomplete/guides/creating-a-renderer).
## Installation

yarn add @algolia/autocomplete-core
