AJAX ✏️

  • stands for Aysnchronus Javascript And XML
  • is a new technique for creating better, faster, and more interactive web applications with the help of XML, HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.
  • is a web browser technology independent of web server software
  • updates a web page without reloading the page
  • requests data from a server - after the page has loaded
  • receives data from a server - after the page has loaded
  • sends data to a server - in the background

My AJAX Workflow ✨

✔️ First, I will open a web page as usual with a synchronous request.

✔️ Next, I will click on a DOM element usually either a button or link which initiates an asynchronous request to the back-end server.

✔️ I will not notice this, since the call is made asynchronously and doesn’t refresh the browser.

✔️ In response to my AJAX request, the server may return XML, JSON, or HTML string data.

✔️ I will parse the responsed data using JavaScript/JQuery.

✔️ This parsed data is updated in the web page's DOM.

✔️ My web page now is updated with real-time data from the server without the browser reloading.✌️

Technologies & Tools I used for this project 🛠️

  • Front-end -> HTML, CSS, JQuery
  • Back-end -> PHP
  • Free API's -> GeoNames
  • Free Favicons -> Favicon
  • Minified CSS & JS -> Minify
  • Domain Registration, Web Hosting at -> IONOS
  • Generated a report using Chrome Dev Tools Lighthouse. Identified and fixed common problems that are affecting site's performance, accessibility, and user experience. At the end, achieved 100% across all but BEST Practices, that's due to the absense of secure connection(https) which I didn't buy.
