Is the term Ajax being used now?

Question

AJAX

For a long time, I made sites that tapped with the backend via json and took some data from there. Is it the same as Ajax? Does anyone else use the term? I just meet him very rarely, and then in old articles.

Answer 1

AJAX (abbreviation for "Asynchronous Javascript And Xml") is a technology for accessing the server without reloading the page. The term is used less and less, because now in the modern front-end almost everywhere it means accessing the server without rebooting. Previously, there was just jQuery and there was just the $.ajax() method that did this, but now axios and fetch do the same thing only more beautifully.
