Mastering Blazor WebAssembly

3.5 (2)
By: Ahmad Mozaffar

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.

Developing Advanced Components in Blazor

In this chapter, we are going to dive deeper into the concept of components by learning about layouts, which define the general shape and the common components of the app pages and how to pass user interfaces (UIs) and other components as parameters using templated components. We will apply these concepts by creating our first layout and templated component. We will also see how we can render components in the UI dynamically using the Dynamic Component technique and learn how to create the Razor Class Library project and package or reuse our components in different projects.

This chapter will provide you with the required knowledge to develop more advanced components, in addition to grouping them in a Razor Class Library for future reusability.

In this chapter, we will cover the following topics:

  • Building layouts in Blazor
  • Developing templated components
  • Rendering components dynamically
  • Using the Razor Class Library...
