Rendering dropdown options from a wix dataset field

I have a dataset that contains information that I would like to use for rendering dropdown options. My dataset has a list of countries and I would like to add a dropdown that renders each country as an option. I know that I can use the getItems method to grab all the fields from the dataset and then map through the array and render an option based on the key of the field I would like to use but the problem is the dataset is very large and this would be an inefficient solution. Is there any other way to accomplish this?

Something like the Country Autocomplete might be a good solution for you.
