New features and capabilities in Algolia InstantSearch

What's this blog post about?

Algolia has introduced new features to its InstantSearch tool, including optimistic UI, modern templating, and simplified events. Optimistic UI allows for faster search updates by assuming the result of a network request before it is resolved, improving user experience in low network conditions. Modern templating makes it easier to use JavaScript with HTML, while simplified events allow developers more control over sending "Insights Events" related to clicks and conversions. These features aim to improve site search and overall user experience.
