In this module, we will build a mini-project to consolidate our understanding of AJAX. We will start by setting up the HTML and CSS, then proceed to fetch text and JSON data using the XMLHttpRequest object. We will also explore the responseType property and refactor our requests using the Fetch API, culminating in retrieving data from third-party APIs.

In this module, we will build a dynamic web application using both PHP and Node.js servers. We will start by creating an input field that allows users to check the availability of food items, sending this data to the server, and displaying the server's response on the client side. This comprehensive project will cover setting up HTML, making AJAX requests, and handling server-side processing with PHP and Node.js.
