It’s used in html forms to disable autocompletion which is enabled by default. From https://www.w3schools.com/tags/att_input_autocomplete.asp The autocomplete attribute specifies whether or not an input field should have autocomplete enabled. Autocomplete allows the browser to predict the value. When a user starts to type in a field, the browser should display options to fill in the field, based on earlier typed values.
