Alpine AJAX is an Alpine.js plugin that enables your HTML elements to request remote content from your server. Use it to build straight-forward, robust, interactive websites.

<form x-target="songs" action="/songs">
  <input name="search" @input.debounce="$el.form.requestSubmit()">
</form>

<ul id="songs">…</ul>
