Overview of this book

Blazor WebAssembly is a revolutionary technology in software development that enables you to develop web applications with a rich user interface using C# without JavaScript. It can be run natively in the browser and soon on mobile apps with .NET MAUI, making it a superweapon in the .NET developer’s toolbox. This capability has opened the doors for the JavaScript community to have a stable framework to build single page applications (SPAs) maintained by Microsoft and driven by the community. Mastering Blazor WebAssembly is a complete resource that teaches you everything you need to build client-side web applications using C# & .NET 7.0. Throughout this book, you’ll discover the anatomy of a Blazor WebAssembly project, along with the build, style, and structure of the components. You’ll implement forms to catch user input and collect data, as well as explore the topics of navigating between the pages in depth. The chapters will guide you through handling complex scenarios like RenderTrees, writing efficient unit tests, using variant security methods, and publishing the app to different providers, all in a practical manner. By the end of this book, you’ll have the skills necessary to build web apps with Blazor WebAssembly, along with the basics for a future in mobile development with .NET MAUI and Blazor.

Publishing Blazor WebAssembly Apps

After working so hard on your app and after going through all the difficult moments while debugging an error or learning a new technique to build a new feature, the feeling of seeing your app online is priceless, regardless of how big or simple it is.

Finally, it is that time for us. It’s time to put the app we have built so far online and make it accessible via a public URL and have a party after that.

In this chapter, we will introduce some final checks to do for your Blazor WebAssembly app before the release; then, I will introduce you to Blazor WebAssembly ASP.NET Core Hosted. We will also cover the concepts of continuous integration (CI) and continuous delivery (CD). Finally, we will push the project to Azure App Service and Azure Static Web Apps using the Azure portal and GitHub Actions.

In this chapter, we will go over the following topics:

  • Blazor WebAssembly app prerelease checks
  • Getting to know the Blazor WebAssembly...
