Inertia v2.0 Features
- Async Requests - non-blocking requests - all reload requests are now asynchronous by default
- Polling - easily poll the server for updated data
- Lazy loading data on scroll - asynchronously load when a component becomes visible
- Infinite scrolling - new primitives that allow you to build infinite scrolling easily
- Prefetching - prefetch a page in the background and instantly load it at the right time
- Deferred props - defer expensive props and load them in the background after the page loads
- History encryption - Browser history state is encrypted to prevent seeing privileged information upon logout

Remember, the code is currently in beta, and the documentation is considered a work in progress. Please report bugs on GitHub. Congratulations to Jonathan Reinink, Taylor Otwell, Joe Tannenbaum, Pedro Borges, and all those who are contributing to Inertia and Laravel!
