Ajax

Ajax, which stands for Asynchronous JavaScript and XML, is a web development technique that enables asynchronous data exchange between a web browser and a server. By allowing web pages to update dynamically without requiring a complete page reload, Ajax improves user experience by making applications more interactive and responsive. It utilizes a combination of JavaScript and various web technologies, including HTML, CSS, and the XMLHttpRequest object, to facilitate the sending and receiving of data in the background. Although XML was traditionally the format for data exchange, Ajax now commonly uses JSON due to its simplicity and compatibility with JavaScript. Ajax is widely used in modern web applications to implement features such as live content updates, form submissions, and interactive user interfaces.
