Web Development with Blazor

By: Jimmy Engström

Overview of this book

Blazor is an essential tool if you want to build interactive web apps without JS, but it comes with its own learning curve. Web Development with Blazor will help you overcome most common challenges developers face when getting started with Blazor and teach you the best coding practices. You’ll start by learning how to leverage the power of Blazor and explore the full capabilities of both Blazor Server and Blazor WebAssembly. Then you’ll move on to the practical part, which is centred around a sample project – a blog engine. This is where you’ll apply all your newfound knowledge about creating Blazor Server and Blazor WebAssembly projects, the inner working of Razor syntax, and validating forms, as well as creating your own components. You’ll learn all the key concepts involved in web development with Blazor, which you’ll also be able to put into practice straight away. By showing you how all the components work together practically, this book will help you avoid some of the common roadblocks that novice Blazor developers face and inspire you to start experimenting with Blazor on your other projects. When you reach the end of this Blazor book, you'll have gained the confidence you need to create and deploy production-ready Blazor applications.

Preface

Until now, creating interactive web pages meant using JavaScript. But with Blazor, Microsoft's new way to create .NET web applications, developers can easily build interactive and rich web applications using C#. This book will guide you through the most commonly encountered scenarios when starting your journey with Blazor.

Firstly, you'll discover how to leverage the power of Blazor and learn what you can do with both the server side and WebAssembly. By showing you how all the elements work together practically, the book will help you solve some of the common roadblocks that developers face. As you advance, you'll learn how to create server-side Blazor and Blazor WebAssembly projects, how Razor syntax works, and how to validate forms and create your own components. The book then introduces you to the key concepts involved in web development with Blazor, which you will be able to put into practice straight away.

By the end of this Blazor book, you'll have gained the confidence to create and deploy production-ready Blazor applications.
