Code splitting and lazy-loading components for Alpine.js!

Update September 2024 — version 2 release

Async Alpine 2 is a complete rewrite with bug fixes and improvements using Alpine.js's plugin integration. This makes Async Alpine smaller, faster, and easier to use!

This means Async Alpine 2 is not entirely backwards-compatible with Async Alpine 1. Changes are pretty small however, requiring a change to initialisation and a couple easy replacements.

Upgrade guide

What is it?

Async Alpine is a plugin for the Alpine.js JavaScript framework that allows you to load components asyncronously on-demand.

Alpine.js is a fantastic framework but with a large site with lots of components, the bundle size can start to become a performance problem!

Async Alpine allows you to split your components into multiple component files and only load them when they're needed, speeding up your first load!

These are a few great examples of websites using Async Alpine!
