How do action redirects work?

[kristojorg]

When I create a form with a submit button and use Form, my understanding is that it does not reload the page, but uses the onSubmit to send a request the the endpoint listed in action="/endpoint. So when an action returns a redirect, how does that work? Does the page actually get redirected? If so, how? Is there some logic in the onSubmit to detect a redirect response and redirect the page there? Would that work without javascript?

The Form component receives the response with the redirect from the server and does a client-side navigation, unless you used the reloadDocument prop on the Form component.

If JS is disabled or not loaded, the Form will behave as a normal form tag and it will do a full page navigation which then will be redirected, in this case the browser handles everything.
