Why doesn't Chadcn have a simple autocomplete?

I wonder why Chadcn doesnt just have a simple autocompleted like this below

The Combobox works almost same but it has a feel of having two diff components for a simple task. Below image for ref

Agreed. This would be a great component to have. I also don't like using the combobox for it as it only filters by the start of the word... an autocomplete would be great if the text would be able to search the start of any word in the text.

There is a potential solution here:

Please add the autocomplete to shadcn

A combobox and autocomplete are 2 different types of components. Maybe @shadcn assumes they are the same thing, and thats why autocomplete does not exist in shadcn ui.

Using examples from mantine ui: https://mantine.dev/core/autocomplete https://mantine.dev/core/combobox
