Ajax (web development)

Ajax, or Asynchronous JavaScript and XML, is a web development technique that allows web pages to update dynamically without reloading. It enables a website to send and receive data from a server in the background while the user interacts with the page. This results in faster, smoother user experiences, such as loading new content or submitting forms without interrupting what you’re doing. Ajax is commonly used in applications like social media feeds or online maps, improving interactivity and responsiveness by making web applications feel more like desktop software.
