Getting started with Alpine.js

Alpine is a client-side JavaScript framework that allows us to create JavaScript applications with their reactive and declarative component-based nature. Alpine.js contains an HTML DOM manipulation library that makes it easy for us to interact with it declaratively with less code.

Alpine.js offers us a modular scheme for our projects and to be able to easily extend them with more functionalities.

It is a framework that, by using JavaScript, brings us its benefits of a clean, clear, flexible and scalable syntax through plugins.

In this book, we are going to learn how the framework is formed, the basic characteristics that Alpine.js allows us as a client web framework through small examples that will allow us to know and master this technology.
