Snippet that does AJAX search over a denormalized projection (handled by server) in async

// Snippet that shows AJAX search over a denormalized projection (handled by server) in async
// for sending commands in async - just do the AJAX post to server
// for getting changes - just poll the server for view version
// for cases when polling is expensive - use web sockets.
