When I create a post, how to automatically complete the tag metadata?

The current situation is that I don't know what tags are available at all unless I check from tags. I don't know the exact name of the tag available either. For example, the tag about JavaScript is js or javascript? The tag about Go is go or golang?

Or, the tag can be anything? Will dev.to create the new tag automatically?

Is there any way to automatically complete the available tags?

I think the Forem dev team are looking into this: github.com/forem/forem/issues/14751

Actually you can put any tag and it will be created, although the correct tag will give you more visibility.

Aren't the tags autocompleted when you type?

Unfortunately, there is no autocomplete.

There are two editor modes. You are using the plain which doesn't support autocomplete. If you switch to Rich mode, you will get autocomplete.

Rich + markdown editor mode is what I am looking for. Thanks!
