description: 'Hotwire Turbo for Symfony UX -- SPA-like speed with zero JavaScript. Covers Drive (navigation), Frames (partial page sections), and Streams (multi-target updates). Use when building ajax navigation, lazy-loaded sections, inline editing, pagination without reload, modals from the server, flash messages via streams, or real-time updates via Mercure/SSE. Code triggers: turbo-frame, turbo-stream, data-turbo-frame, data-turbo, data-turbo-action, turbo-stream-source, TurboStreamResponse, <twig:Turbo:Frame>, <twig:Turbo:Stream:Append>, <twig:Turbo:Stream:Replace>, turbo:before-fetch-request. Also trigger when the user asks "how to update part of the page without reload", "how to make navigation feel like SPA", "how to lazy-load a section", "how to do inline editing", "how to push real-time updates from server", "how to use Mercure with Turbo". Do NOT trigger for client-side JS behavior (use stimulus), server-rendered reactive components (use live-component), or reusable static UI (use twig-component).'

Turbo

Hotwire Turbo provides SPA-like speed with server-rendered HTML. No JavaScript to write. Three components work together:

  • **Drive** -- Automatic AJAX navigation for all links and forms (zero config)
  • **Frames** -- Scoped navigation that updates only one section of the page
  • **Streams** -- Server-pushed DOM mutations (append, replace, remove, etc.)

Decision Tree

Need to update the page?
+-- Full page navigation          -> Turbo Drive (automatic, already active)
+-- Single section from user click -> Turbo Frame
+-- Multiple sections from action  -> Turbo Stream (HTTP response)
+-- Real-time from server/others   -> Turbo Stream (Mercure / SSE)

Installation

composer require symfony/ux-turbo

That's it. Turbo Drive is active immediately -- all links and forms become AJAX.

Turbo Drive

Automatic SPA-like navigation. Every `<a>` click and `<form>` submit is intercepted, fetched via AJAX, and the `<body>` is swapped. The browser URL and history update normally.

Disabling for Specific Elements

<!-- Disable on link/form -->
<a href="/external" data-turbo="false">External Link</a>

<!-- Disable for entire section -->
<div data-turbo="false">
    <a href="/normal">Normal link (no Turbo)</a>
</div>

History and Caching

<!-- Replace history instead of push -->
<a href="/page" data-turbo-action="replace">Replace History</a>

<!-- Force full reload when asset changes -->
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/app.css" data-turbo-track="reload">
<script src="/app.js" data-turbo-track="reload"></script>

Turbo Frames

Scope navigation to a section of the page. Links and forms inside a frame update only that frame's content. The rest of the page stays untouched.

Basic Frame

<!-- Page with frame -->
<turbo-frame id="messages">
    <h2>Messages</h2>
    <a href="/messages/1">View Message 1</a>  <!-- Updates only this frame -->
</turbo-frame>

<!-- /messages/1 response must contain a matching frame ID -->
<turbo-frame id="messages">
    <h2>Message 1</h2>
    <p>Content here...</p>
    <a href="/messages">Back to list</a>
</turbo-frame>

The server response is a full HTML page, but Turbo extracts only the matching `<turbo-frame>` and swaps it in.

Lazy Loading

Load frame content asynchronously after the page renders:

<turbo-frame id="notifications" src="/notifications" loading="lazy">
    <p>Loading...</p>
</turbo-frame>

Target Another Frame

A link inside one frame can update a different frame:

<turbo-frame id="sidebar">
    <a href="/item/1" data-turbo-frame="main-content">View Item</a>
</turbo-frame>

<turbo-frame id="main-content">
    <!-- Content replaced here -->
</turbo-frame>

Break Out of Frame

Navigate the entire page from within a frame:

<turbo-frame id="modal">
    <a href="/dashboard" data-turbo-frame="_top">Go to Dashboard</a>
</turbo-frame>

Frame with Form

Forms inside frames submit and update within that frame:

<turbo-frame id="search-results">
    <form action="/search" method="get">
        <input type="search" name="q">
        <button>Search</button>
    </form>
    <ul>
        {% for item in results %}
            <li>{{ item.name }}</li>
        {% endfor %}
    </ul>
</turbo-frame>

URL Sync

Update the browser URL when a frame navigates (useful for bookmarkable state):

<turbo-frame id="products" data-turbo-action="advance">
    <!-- Browser URL updates when this frame navigates -->
</turbo-frame>

Turbo Streams

Update multiple DOM elements from a single server response. Eight actions available (`append`, `prepend`, `replace`, `update`, `remove`, `before`, `after`, `refresh`), each targeting elements by ID or CSS selector.

Stream Actions

<turbo-stream action="append" target="messages">
    <template><div id="msg_1">New message</div></template>
</turbo-stream>

<turbo-stream action="prepend" target="messages">
    <template><div id="msg_0">First!</div></template>
</turbo-stream>

<turbo-stream action="replace" target="notification">
    <template><div id="notification">Updated!</div></template>
</turbo-stream>

<turbo-stream action="update" target="counter">
    <template>42</template>
</turbo-stream>

<turbo-stream action="remove" target="msg_5"></turbo-stream>

<turbo-stream action="before" target="msg_3">
    <template><div id="msg_2">Inserted before</div></template>
</turbo-stream>

<turbo-stream action="after" target="msg_3">
    <template><div id="msg_4">Inserted after</div></template>
</turbo-stream>

<turbo-stream action="refresh"></turbo-stream>

`replace` and `update` support an optional `method="morph"` attribute for smooth DOM morphing instead of full replacement:

<turbo-stream action="replace" method="morph" target="
