namespace App\Models;

use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Factories\HasFactory;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;

class Post extends Model
{
    use HasFactory;
    protected $fillable = [
        'title',
        'description'
    ];

}

    public function postCreateByAjax(){
        return view('ajax.ajax-create');
    }

    public function postStoreByAjax(Request $request){

        $validator = Validator::make($request->all(), [
            'title' => 'required',
            'description' => 'required',
        ]);

        if ($validator->passes()) {

            Post::create($request->all()); // it store data to the DB

            return response()->json(['success'=>'Added new records.']);

        }

        return response()->json(['error'=>$validator->errors()]);

    }
}

Make Migration file

php artisan make:migration create_post_table –create=posts

database/migration/2020_09_20_163428_create_post_table.php

<?php

use Illuminate\Database\Migrations\Migration;
use Illuminate\Database\Schema\Blueprint;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Schema;

class CreatePostTable extends Migration
{
    /**
     * Run the migrations.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function up()
    {
        Schema::create('posts', function (Blueprint $table) {
            $table->id();
            $table->text('title');
            $table->text('description');
            $table->timestamps();
        });
    }

    /**
     * Reverse the migrations.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function down()
    {
        Schema::dropIfExists('posts');
    }
