页面上的Ajax加载

Question

So, I really like Google play store on web browser.

I am trying to make the similar web behavior.

For example, when you choose a category or item, the menu and overall "frame" of the site does not change (ie. not refreshed) and only the main content changes and a "loading" icon before the content changes.

How can I achieve something like that? is it javascript?

Thanks!
