DateField and TimeField rendered as textfield in Django

[Vishal Pandey]

Hi everyone,

Whenever we use DateField and TimeField, django renders its html input field type as text.

I know it could be changed by customising the attributes in form class, but why is not by default.

I am also aware of the fact that date and time are supported by almost all browsers but not datetime-local.

Is it designed so?

If not, can I work upon this and make a PR in django's repository. ?

Thanks and Regards,
