Overview of this book

If you're writing applications that move structured data from one place to another, this book is for you. This is especially true if you've been using XML to do the job because it's entirely possible that you could do much of the same work with less code and less data overhead in JSON. While the book's chapters make some distinction between the client and server sides of an application, it doesn't matter if you're a frontend, backend, or full-stack developer. The principles behind using JSON apply to both the client and the server, and in fact, developers who understand both sides of the equation generally craft the best applications.

The "X" in AJAX stands for XML, but today's AJAX applications typically use JSON to encapsulate data between the client and server.

The underpinning components of AJAX are actually quite old, dating back to an ActiveX component in Internet Explorer introduced by Microsoft back in 1998.

However, the technique really gained widespread traction by 2005, when Jesse Garrett wrote his article titled Ajax: A New Approach to Web Applications. In April of 2006, the World Wide Web Consortium released the first draft standard for the XMLHttpRequest object, which is the underlying object powering all of today's AJAX applications in modern browsers.

In this chapter, we'll build a simple AJAX application that returns the latitude and longitude of an amateur radio station...
