プロポーザル

テックラーメンのプロポーザル最終日、プロプロポーザラー達を奮い立たせる何かがあったのか、多様な応募の大盛況で締めくくられたみたいでした。これで当日のクオリティもさらに高まりそうです。今週、ゆるあさに参加してみて良かった。 ところで、道北の方々からすると、夏が来るのにこの凍っている人誰状態のそれ我です（テヘペロ）なのがちょっと気になってました。 陰キャなのでメッチャ迷ったけど未公開企画にも関連するかもしれないですので、来週はFuraIT(読み方はゆるあさで教わった)にも出現してみます。

ここは室内にスーパーカブが停まっていますけど

緊急事態宣言前からCoderDojo紫雲は毎月第2日曜日に開く事にしていま��た。これはCoderDojoは"イベント"というよりは、"場所"であり"ポータル"に近いみたいな概念なので、毎月同じ日にその場所でポータルが開く、みたいなニュアンスです。外出自粛以降、規模を縮小したりオンライン化したりで続けている間に、それまで参加していたNinjaは皆立派に成長して自分たちのコミュニティに進んでいきました。多分…。 この1、2年ほどは特に問い合わせもなく、参加者0のときは会場だけ開けておいて、他の地域のDojoの様子を参考にしたり技術的なキャッチアップやドキュメントを残したりする時間になっています。 例外として昨年は、CoderDojo本山と協力して男木島でワンオフのイベントを開催したりオンラインでマイクラのサーバを立てたりなどはありました。

ということでですね、今日は半年ぶりにカンファレンス業も無く、本拠地にも居るということで、久々にゆっくりキャッチアップしながら先月の備品の片付けかなーと、油断してのんびりしてたら、初参加のNinjaが保護者の方と一緒に来訪してメッチャ焦ってすみませんすみません言いながらその場を片付けしつつCoderDojoの説明をしつつ、ここは室内にスーパーカブが停まっていますけど怪しいところでは無いんですよここがCoderDojo紫雲ですみたいな事を言いつつなんか色々頑張ってとりあえずCoderDojoとして成立しました。

初参加の小学生Ninjaでしたが、昨年のマイクラカップ受賞者の1人で、同じ四国地区内のライバル（愛媛県のNinja）からCoderDojo紫雲の存在を聞いて訪れたみたいで、もう僕その場で泣くかと思っちゃった… 初参加ではありましたが、さすがの受賞経験者で、限られた時間内で作品をプレイアブルな状態にまで仕上げる技は素晴らしかったです。どんどん全国に挑戦して行ってほしい気持ちになりました。

本日のNinja開発作品「扉」 ドアの向こうに居るなにかと対話することで物語が進んでいくミステリー作品に仕上がっています。 扉　ver1 on Scratch https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/1018150724

今日はトレーニングをお休みし、好きなものを食べる日でした。でもなんかもうなんもいらん…みたいな思考になってて危なかったので近所でパンとお菓子を買ってきて食べていたところで上記の来訪イベントが発生したのでした。

規模感の概念が違うのですが

先日Twitterのサブスクに課金したことで、限定的にツイートが見れるようになり、【現在地が】富良野になってる人の農耕レポートに癒やされたりして過ごせるようになりました。なんかワイの知ってる畑と規模感の概念が違うのですががが？ 僕が生まれた時の実家も農家だった(過去形)ので、懐かしい感じやらなにやら様々な想起に繋がりました。 旅と農耕って、イメージが相反してるかなって気がしてたんですが、子供の頃を思い返すと収穫の時期だけに現れる��らん人たちも居たなあ… という事もありで割と合ってそうだなーとおもい直してきました。

半分にしてみよ

1日2時間エアロバイクに乗り続けるのは、ちょっと脳筋思考だったかもしれないのです…。 20日からはダイエット開始後、初の遠征なので、それまではカロリー管理はそのままでトレーニング時間を半分にしてみようと試みています。 朝夕を半分ずつにするのと、朝夕一回にするのとどちらがいいんだろうなんですぜ。 ポッドキャストを聴くなら1時間ある方がよさそうですかな。

Fig. 07 力を合わせることで大迫力になるカロリー

そういえば、ここ昨今の様に弱っている状態を言語化し続けると、弱りマンとして可視化されてしまうんですよな…。でもまあ、ここだけは弱りマンでいるのもいいか。

CODING FOR KIDS WITH SPECIAL NEEDS

The world of coding can be scary, with obscure symbols and complicated logic. What if we told you it might be a creative and problem-solving playground for children with special needs? Intrigued? Buckle up, because we’re going to discover the thrilling world of adaptive coding strategies!

Here���s how coding transforms into an inclusive playground:

Block-based coding language: Scratch, Blockly, and Codemonkey Jr, these drag-and-drop interfaces make coding more visual and intuitive, which is ideal for children who struggle with traditional text-based coding. Imagine making colorful animations with just a few clicks!

Voice-activated coding: Speech recognition software allows children with physical restrictions to code using voice commands. This enables kids to contribute and express their creativity via code.

Gamification: Gamifying learning makes it more enjoyable and inspiring. RoboGarden, for example, turns coding into a game in which children solve puzzles and accomplish challenges, thus fostering problem-solving abilities in a fun way.

Physical computing: Makey Makey and Sphero robots are two examples of tools that help to connect the digital and physical realms. Coding becomes tangible and interesting for kids when they can program their robots to overcome difficulties or make their own musical instruments.

Multisensory learning: Multisensory learning environments are very beneficial for kids with special needs. Interactive coding exercises that combine visual, tactile, and audio components improve learning and memory. Through the combination of physical building and programming, interactive coding toys such as Botley the Coding Robot or LEGO Education SPIKE Prime offer a hands-on learning experience.

Several initiatives have successfully implemented adaptive learning techniques to teach coding to kids with special needs:

CoderDojo’s Autism Pilot Program: The international network of coding clubs CoderDojo has introduced a trial program, especially for kids with autism. Through the use of customized support, visual aids, and sensory breaks, the program established a warm and inviting atmosphere in which kids could flourish.

Tech Access: TeachAccess promotes accessible and inclusive design in technology-based learning. Their materials and training courses give teachers the skills and resources they need to design coding curricula that are accessible to learners of all skill levels.

Apple’s Everyone Can Code Curriculum: All students can benefit from inclusive and accessible coding instruction thanks to Apple’s curriculum, which includes activities and materials designed specifically for students with disabilities.

Remember: It’s all about finding the correct match! Investigate multiple coding platforms, try out new strategies, and celebrate little wins. There is no one-size-fits-all solution, so customize the learning experience for your child’s individual needs and interests.

Coding is more than just building snazzy websites or mobile apps. It is about developing problem-solving abilities, promoting creativity, and instilling confidence. By embracing adaptive learning methodologies, we can provide access to this exciting world for all children, empowering them to become future coders, inventors, and innovators.

Yo. How do you code? (I only know the basics to HTML and CSS :/)

Idk which specific question you’re asking, like like how do I code as in what tools do I use, or what do I do and what is my process, or how did I learn to code, or can you teach me to code

And because I don’t know I’ll answer all of them :3

1. What tools do I use?

I use a few things to code, VS Code for actually writing the code, GitHub for storing projects and collaboration, Google and StackOverflow and depending on the project various other apps

2. How do I do it and my workflow process

Uh I have like no idea, I kinda just learn how certain things work via Google and then I slot them together, But the workflow process, I know exactly how to do that, ok so get a white board or a notepad or something, write what you want your program to do, and then break it down into steps and then break it down again and again, so for example,

For my current project, (The Incorrect Quote Generator), I need to take inputs, from a list of quotes choose one that fits the parameters, replace names in the quote with the inputted ones and then print the whole thing

Breaking down the first bit I need the inputs, what inputs do I need? I need the amount of characters and the names of the characters, ok done, second bit, take the quotes, sort them based off of character amount, using the amount of characters from the previous step, pick a set of quotes that match, replace the names, last bit, take the quote with it replaced and done

Breaking down again, first bit, done already, second bit, do we want something like autocapitalisation to make it nicer , yeah sure, what about capitalising the entire name if it fits the circumstance, makes it smoother, done, last bit done

Ok what about formatting, do we want all of this on one line or do we want separate lines for each person speaking, yeah we want separate lines, ok use an “&” symbol to represent a space and when the piece of code that assembles the end string encounters it, print the string and reset continuing from where we are to make a new line

That’s the design process for that

But first you make a prototype of it, to see if it works, like I didn’t have the autocaps or anything at first, I only added that when one of the submissions needed it

Anyways-

3. How did I learn to code

Through a number of ways, first I had gone to this computer club thing when I was like 8 or something and I found Scratch and learned about that, then when I was about 10 I was curious about html and websites, so I ended up making websites for classmates, then lockdown hit and I had nothing to do, I wanted to make a game, so what did I do? I jumped headfirst into Unity and struggled to get absolutely anything done (DON’T DO THIS), at some point I ended up joining this thing called Coderdojo which is like a coding class which worked really well (I actually still go there every Saturday although I’m at more advanced stuff now) and I learned about python and then kept learning more, then I made my own projects and learned more on my own from that

If you are looking to learn on your own, I’d recommend W3Schools, they have tons of courses, are entirely free and very in depth

But first I’d recommend you check out Scratch, it’s great for learning how to think in computer terms

4. Can I teach you to code

I know this probably wasn’t what you were asking but I’ll answer it anyway

Sure, I’d love to, coding one of the things I enjoy a lot because it combines logic and making things, and I love helping and teaching people things so teaching someone else to code sounds good to me :3

شروع برنامه نویسی برای کودکان

 وب جزء لاینفک بسیاری از زندگی ما است و ما معتقدیم ک  شروع برنامه نویسی برای کودکان ه برای کودکان مهم است که درکی از فناوری که آن را هدایت می کند داشته باشند. به همین دلیل است که ما یک مسیر مقدمه ای برای توسعه وب داریم که به کودکان اجازه می دهد صفحات وب خود را با HTML و CSS ایجاد کنند. این مسیر به آنها کمک می کند تا صفحات وب مورد علاقه خود را ایجاد کنند و همچنین در مورد طراحی وب قابل دسترس یاد بگیرند.

دختری سرگرم یادگیری کدنویسی در خانه روی تبلت نشسته روی مبل است.

این به کودکان این امکان را می دهد که یاد بگیرند وب سایت هایی شروع برنامه نویسی برای کودکان  که بازدید می کنند چگونه با کد ایجاد می شوند.

کلوپ های کدنویسی

کلوپ های کدنویسی مکانی عالی برای سرگرمی کودکان و کسب اعتماد به نفس بیشتر با کدنویسی است، جایی که آنها می توانند از طریق ساختن و به اشتراک گذاری خلاقیت های خود با یکدیگر یاد بگیرند. بنیاد Raspberry Pi بزرگترین شبکه کلوپ های کدنویسی جهان - CoderDojo و Code Club را اداره می کند.

من هر سال گروه جدیدی از سازندگان را در Code Club خود دارم  شروع برنامه نویسی برای کودکان  و بخش مورد علاقه من زمانی است که آنها متوجه می شوند که واقعاً می توانند به تخیل خود اجازه دهند. شما می خواهید انیمیشنی بسازید که در آن یک آناناس سخنگو یک آدم برفی را تعقیب کند - کاملاً. شما می‌خواهید از 1000 آلات موسیقی کارتونی پیکسل‌شده، یک اثر هنری مقیاس‌پذیر بسازید — درست پیش بروید. اگر می توانید آن را کدنویسی کنید، می توانید آن را بسازید.

در Code Club و CoderDojo، بسیاری از جوانان از همکاری با یکدیگر برای پروژه های کدگذاری لذت می برند.

چالش های کدنویسی

هنگامی که فرزند شما برخی از اصول اولیه را آموخت، ممکن است شروع برنامه نویسی برای کودکان  از ورود به چالش کدنویسی لذت ببرد! برنامه چالش اروپایی Astro Pi به جوانان اجازه می دهد تا کد بنویسند و در واقع آن را در ایستگاه فضایی بین المللی اجرا کنند، و Coolest Projects به کودکان فرصتی می دهد تا پروژه های خود را از سراسر جهان به نمایش بگذارند.

برای جوانان خوب است که کد این پروژه های میکروکنترلر را یاد بگیرند،شروع برنامه نویسی برای کودکان  اما اگر افراد زیر 18 سال بخواهند الکترونیک واقعی را که شامل لحیم کاری و استفاده از ابزار است یاد بگیرند، قوانین ایمنی و بهدا��تی با مشکلات بزرگی مواجه می شوند، به این معنی است که مغازه ها در صورت آسیب رساندن به خود، ابزار را به زیر 18 سال نمی فروشند. بنابراین آنها دیگر نمی توانند وسایل الکترونیکی یا مدل سازی را به عنوان یک سرگرمی انجام دهند و به تماشای نمایشگرها تنزل می دهند که چقدر افسرده کننده است.

Tbh فقط برای کنار آمدن با صنعت فعلی فناوری اطلاعات، فرزند شما نیازی به یادگیری کدنویسی در سنین پایین زندگی خود ندارد. با سرعت فزاینده ارتقاء فناوری، هر آنچه فرزند شما یاد می‌گیرد تا زمانی که واجد شرایط کار در صنعت فناوری اطلاعات شود، از بین خواهد رفت. بنابراین پیشنهاد می‌کنم فرزندتان را مجبور به یادگیری شروع برنامه نویسی برای کودکان  کدنویسی نکنید، اگر خودش علاقه‌مند است، می‌توانید با زبان‌های کدنویسی مانند C یا C++ شروع کنید تا به او کمک کنید مفاهیم کدنویسی را در آنجا پاک کند و مهارت‌هایش را از سطح پایه بهبود بخشد. بعداً آنها می توانند هر زبان برنامه نویسی دیگری را به راحتی یاد بگیرند.

من می گویم بهترین سن برای شروع یادگیری مهارت های کدنویسی 15 سال به بالا است، قبل از آن هیچ تفاوتی به جز استرس و فشار بر ذهن کودک شما ایجاد نمی کند.

خیلی مفیده با تشکر برای به اشتراک گذاری. ما در عصر تکنولوژی  شروع برنامه نویسی برای کودکان مدرن زندگی می کنیم، بنابراین می توان گفت که کامپیوتر و سایر وسایل الکترونیکی به موارد مهم زندگی تبدیل شده اند. من می بینم که پسرم به نظر می رسد علاقه زیادی به رایانه دارد، او کنجکاو است و دوست دارد کاوش کند. ب�� همین دلیل است  Start programming for kids که می خواهم به فرزندم اجازه دهم از طریق کدنویسی یاد بگیرد تا ببیند آیا برای او مناسب است؟ من اسکا را پیدا کردم

Hey so it's your tardy coder, who is just like you, messy and fails to meet todo list tasks.

This time I have got some good stuff... I AM MAKING MY OWN TODO LIST, FROM AN OLD PRACTICAL NOTEBOOK I NEVER USED...

This is what I am starting with... will keep posting the steps... use hashtag #zoedi

Day 2 - What are Semantic elements? Why they are important?

Rather than writing vague divs (which are container tags) in your document.How about using semantic tags?

Semantic tags define the purpose of the element. It's beneficial to use tags,class names and ids that give meaning to your content rather than just define its looks. Presentation is the responsibility of CSS.

For example- <p>,<header>,<figure> tells the content wrapped around them are paragraph,header or image.

They help the browser as well as developers understand the meaning of their content.

Why is Semantic Html important?

Helps to write clean and maintainable code

Enhances Accessibility

Improves SEO

Succeeding in tech has nothing to do with how smart you are; it has everything to do with how persistent you are. . Everything in this field is cumulative. Each topic you learn will build off of prior topics. That’s what makes it challenging. Be sure to start at square one. If you don’t have a background in tech, you’ll want to start by learning the fundamentals of computers and studying the basic terminology. . You’re going to have to learn a lot of tough topics and you’re not necessarily going to comprehend them all on your first try. Accept this fact. In those moments, you need to be conscious of your own comprehension. . Constantly check in with yourself and reflect on whether the topic you’re studying makes sense to you. If it doesn’t, don’t jump ahead! Try going back over the prerequisite topics to see if something didn’t make sense. The absence of comprehension can be frustrating but don’t let that get you down. . Comprehension should be your end goal, not your immediate expectation. If you still find yourself stuck on a particular topic, go through your learning materials and outline all the important terminology, definitions, and examples. Commit those to memory. Use flash cards or write out the terms and definitions repeatedly until you can recite them by memory. Comprehension takes time. Memorization is the next best thing after comprehension. . . . #codered #coderdojo #webdevelopment #html #codinglife #code #softwareengineering #programmer #coders #developer #webdeveloper #software #java #coderpower #programmerlife #developerlife #coderlife #developers #coding #programmerrepublic #programmers #programming #softwareengineer #codereddvd #coder #softwaredeveloper #javascript #programmerslife #coderedbrand #codergirl https://www.instagram.com/p/Bn2PNMdhMGh/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1sxaetxjggstz

22/11 Day of the entrepreneur - Day of the female entrepreneur. #SheDIDIT

Today 22/11 is day of the entrepreneur in Belgium. Perfect day to run a female entrepreneurship event. I am so happy and honoured that I was invited as a panel member/ guest speaker at the event of #SheDIDit. They promised not an ordinary Friday but a day full of entrepreneurship, diversity and youth... I can officially say that SheDIDIT!

#SheDIDIT is a unique platform full of female talent across cultural backgrounds. It is for the entrepreneurial female with foreign roots. The SheDIDIt woman is willing to do develop all her skills and use her talent to chase her dreams!

I sat in a room full of talented, inspiring and ambitious women from various countries in the world. The event took place on the 10th floor of the Arteveldehogeschool in Ghent, Belgium, which has an amazing panoramic view by the way. We were all connected by the fact we are all women and our common Belgian background either by education, culture, family or just by location. It was amazing to see the diversity and female talent in this country.

In the panel I sat next to Soraya Hayani from the organization FLEKS; an organization that aims to inspire youth to become entrepreneurs. Hearing her talk, I am sure she has inspired many young kids! Bravo Soraya! Keep doing your thing 💜

Another panel member was Katrin Van Den Troost; a very well informed young woman that knows entrepreneurship very well. She is part of Haven Incubator, a cooperation that stimulates kids to turn their hobbies into a business.

http://www.havencoop.com

I also like to mention Emmanuel Iyamu, not a woman but a very interesting young man. He co-founded AYO Belgium, a student union that assists in increasing the success rate of Afro Belgian youth in academics. Emmanuel is full of energy and know - how. I was delighted to discover that such organization finally exist in Belgium. When I was studying, no such organizations existed nor were their any thoughts of creating such. Way to go Emmanuel; you are doing great things! He put the “He’ in ‘She’.

http://www.afroyouth.org

Yasmina Kichauat from Waka Waka Gen also presented strongly.

After the debate, Karijn Bonne, Head of Research and Development Center Business & Management at the Arteveldehogeschool presented the results of her research about the drivers and obstacles of female entrepreneurship amongst newcomers (people who recently arrived in Belgium) and migrants. The results of the study were surprising and at the same time interesting to me. I was mostly surprised to find out that migrant parents were less entrepreunial. Having worked in microfinance in Belgium in the past, and being overwhelmed with loan applications from migrant communities; I had the idea that most migrant parents were self employed. However, the study only covered a small sample of 60 girls with a variety of backgrounds from Liberia to Japan. So it is rather indicative then representive. It is interesting to learn that the majority of the girls would choose to become entrepreneurs for non economic reasons. Reasons are 1) To become a role model. 2)To become financially independent. 3) To have a social impact. 4) Market opportunities. 5) To fight discrimination on the labour market and offering jobs to others. 6) Children: becoming an entrepreneur for kids. The young girls felt that if a Muslim girl with a hijab 🧕 makes it... that’s some serious ish... streetcred all the way. The girls apparently found it hard to come up with a role model. Eventually, they did identify Bill Gates, Oprah Winfrey, Kylie Jenner and I noticed Ellen Johnson Sirleaf. I assume she was identified by the Liberian girl in the study group. It was clear that more female role models are needed. Either way, it is already a good start away from the classical, old grey haired, blue suited, caucasian man, that was described multiple times during the event, as the old skool representation of the entrepreneur/ businessman. The obstacles of entrepreneurship are similar for boys as for girls. However, a big concern for these young girls is pregnancy and children. How to combine both? What about paid, versus self employed non - paid pregnancy leave? Another obstacle is access to finance and not having the right network (as with most entrepreneurs). A key finding though, is that fathers can be the backbone and support of these young girls, wanting to start their entrepreneurial dreams. Seems to me that we have to start investing in Daddy Groups, if we want our girls to have more chances to succeed! This is just a quick summary of the results but more can be downloaded on the website of SheDIDIT.

SheDIDIT is a wonderful organization lead by very professional women such as Lien Warmenbol and Katia Kribotuchko who led this event successfully. They invited icons for more discussion and provided a delicious lunch by the catering company “From Syria with love” managed by Yara Al-Adib. The food was amazing! It is the first time that I had Syrian food and I want more more more!!!! and I want to eat it cooked by them :) Meeting Yara was also as her food such a delight. She is such a positive woman full of great potential that sparks your energy. You can book FSYRIAWLOVECATERING for all your events, business dinners or parties. I am sure I will!

Another icon is Roningirl - A samoerai without a sword - she is Cheryl Miller - Van Dijck and she gave us a serious reality check. This Ronin hit us with facts on the discrepancy between men and women. Trust me, we women do not want this; we want equality on all levels. Yet we still do not receive the same opportunities as our fellow male gender brothers. Real Talk: Only 14 percent members of the board in Europe are women, 1 in 5 employees are women in ICT Europe, technology drive entrepreneurship by women in Belgium is at the bottom of Europe, Belgium ranks at the bottom in terms of girls in STEM education. Sad sad sad 😢 we must do better. As a matter of fact, 80% of women are marginalized in their career. Yet with all the obstacles in place, women still find their way to entrepreneurship and at increasing rates. Today we are at 35% in Belgium. A quote that stuck with me today was “The only thing that seperates women of color from anyone else is opportunity- Viola Davis” let that resonate for a bit... It is key according Mrs. Miller that women do not longer give their time to the patriarchy and start their own business. I find this essential in creating equality. We must teach our girls to stand their own ground even better than men! Another icon was Claudia Pahola from Guatemala, a lecturer a St Lucas, a designer at Samsonite and so much more. She brought us nothing but good tips on how to say No as a woman in business, how to deal with failure and how to stay positive! Blogger, influencer Sarah Dimani was also present and gave us a brief insight of what it meant to be a blogger. Most people do not see her as an entrepreneur, they think she is unboxing all day. Well, they are damn wrong, because what I saw was a serious business woman and an equality activist. She explained to us: how to take control of the narrative when the media covers you in trash without ever even asking for an interview. She talked about how it is difficult to keep the balance between personal and business life as an Instagram celebrity with a massive following. Influencer is the correct term but she finds it denigrating; at the end of the day she also needs to make sure her bookkeeping is done and the bills are paid. In order to do so, she is required to run her account as a business and create the necessary content. Unboxing is the easy the part. She is part of the first generation that grew up with social media and in the future being an influencer will be considered a proper job. I agree with her, in my opinion being an influencer is already a serious job/ business. It’s not easy to get Likes ;) Maybe Sarah will even construct an empire such as the Italian Chiara Ferragni; she definitely has the allures for it.

In general, I must conclude it was a fantastic day. Schools were awarded that participated in the business game and Sakina closed down the event with some nice slam poetry. I left on the beats of DJLizaay after networking with Wouter Van Bellingen, the backbone of this project through Integratiepact, Elvira from TedXGhent, IIana Brandwain from Noble Fine Jewelry 💎, Gudrun Verschuere Managing Director at Markant, Alenka Le Compte from the King Boudewijn Foundation and so many more leading ladies! A day full of love and support on what I now call female entrepreneurship day 22/11.

P.S.: this post is written on my iPhone X so sorry for the mistakes.

Hey tumblr!

So I don't know if it counts but here is how my first day went into the challenge. So I tried waking up at 4 am and I did but i dozed off again as the weather was quite cold.

Then I woke up by 9 am and took lecture 1 from Cs50 about SCRATCH. Then I built a Scratch project, a rough fruit ninja game. "I'll share link to my projects here soon."

I tried listening to another lecture, but I felt quite unmotivated.

Highly disappointed by DAY1 but won't drop here. So I am listing my Day 2 targets here.

1. Complete Python course on Sololearn and Kaggle both.

2. Complete Java course on Sololearn and w3s.

3. See Android studio basics.(YOUTUBE)

4. Complete one certification on freecodecamp.

It's lot and unrealistic but this way i can get atleast half done. 😂😂

Also waking up at 4 am for sure.

P.s. Taking writing challenge too, will share poems and short stories shortly.

Day 5 - Define options with datalist tag

The Html5 <datalist> tag is used to provide autocomplete feature in the input field of the form.⁣

⁣It specifies the set of predefined options for the user to input.⁣

⁣To bind it to the input, it is usually used with the <input> element's "list" attribute whose value matches the datalist id.⁣

⁣It works with all types of inputs like data, range, and color.⁣

⁣

Have you ever used this tag in your projects?
