Does AJAX need to be run in the HTML file via <script> tags or can it be done with a separate JS file?

Like the question says, I thought that we should keep JS and HTML on separate files. So do we need to do it via HTML or should it be done via a separate JS file?

its really up to you, It can be run within a <script> tag on HTML. I personally like to keep all my JS and HTML separated into different files, even when making AJAX calls.
