Research direction
The repository is no longer maintained, so contributors should first confirm if the maintainer is open to contributions. The issue requests replacing the current autocomplete library (awesomeplete) with a React based solution. Research the existing usage of autocomplete in the codebase (likely in JavaScript/HTML files) and evaluate React based autocomplete components (e.g., react autocomplete). Since no linked PRs or comments exist, the contributor may need to propose a design in a new issue or fork the repo. Check if the project is active elsewhere.
