/ About /

Alpine.js is a lightweight JavaScript framework that lets developers add interactivity directly in HTML markup using declarative attributes. It offers 15 directives, 6 properties, and 2 methods — covering reactivity, event handling, templating, and transitions without a build step. It is designed as a modern, minimal alternative to jQuery for adding behavior to server-rendered or static HTML pages.

/ How it works /

Include Alpine.js via a script tag and use declarative x- attributes directly in your HTML to bind data, handle events, and control rendering.
