Laravel: how to render only one section of a template?

Question

My best answer right now would be to state in your view that it must only extend the master template (layout) if the request is not being called via AJAX:

@if(!Request::ajax())
    @extends('master.template')
@endif

Note, however, that this solution may not be best for your specific templates (I can only guess that). You'd need to make sure that each template/view only contains things that do not repeat, like side bars, etc. For example, if you have a content area that needs to be updated with pjax, then your view should only contain whatever should be changed.
