Do you mind me asking what the tech stack is for this? I love how smooth it is and that the search is instant, but using the BuiltWith Firefox add-on doesn't show me any framework or technology that would do that apart from PHP/JS. Is it pure AJAX?

I’m no web dev and to understand modern web frameworks and their ecosystems just seems like a tremendous undertaking at this point.
