How to fire the change event for an input field?
I  have added some input to an input field element this way:

```js
const inputFiled = document.querySelector("#example");
inputField.value = "X";
```

I want to fire a [change event](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/HTMLElement/change_event) for that field right after the input was added.

This is something I want to try after noticing that the input isn't recognized if added in the above way (rather, it is recognized only by typing/pasting).

How to do that?
