x-ignore

By default, Alpine will crawl and initialize the entire DOM tree of an element containing x-init or x-data.

If for some reason, you don't want Alpine to touch a specific section of your HTML, you can prevent it from doing so using x-ignore.

<div x-data="{ label: 'From Alpine' }">
    <div x-ignore>
        <span x-text="label"></span>
    </div>
</div>

In the above example, the <span> tag will not contain "From Alpine" because we told Alpine to ignore the contents of the div completely.
