I’m making a form that users can input duration of time into the fields
I set default values on these fields, and I set widget for these fields as `NumberInput`, because if I use HTML `input type="time"`, the browser shows AM/PM without additional style or scripting, and this might lead users to confuse about entering duration.
So, I use `NumberInput` and additional `clean_` to handle this
This don’t show default value on the input.
What I want to know is, which HTML input type or widget should I use to show users default value and make them not confused.

class Branch(models.Model):

lesson_time = models.DurationField(
verbose_name="Lesson time",
default=datetime.timedelta(minutes=110),
)
break_time = models.DurationField(
verbose_name="Break time",
default=datetime.timedelta(minutes=10),
)
...
```
