Blazor WebAssembly by Example

By: Toi B. Wright

Overview of this book

Blazor WebAssembly makes it possible to run C# code on the browser instead of having to use JavaScript, and does not rely on plugins or add-ons. The only technical requirement for using Blazor WebAssembly is a browser that supports WebAssembly, which, as of today, all modern browsers do. Blazor WebAssembly by Example is a project-based guide for learning how to build single-page web applications using the Blazor WebAssembly framework. This book emphasizes the practical over the theoretical by providing detailed step-by-step instructions for each project. You'll start by building simple standalone web applications and progress to developing more advanced hosted web applications with SQL Server backends. Each project covers a different aspect of the Blazor WebAssembly ecosystem, such as Razor components, JavaScript interop, event handling, application state, and dependency injection. The book is designed in such a way that you can complete the projects in any order. By the end of this book, you will have experience building a wide variety of single-page web applications with .NET, Blazor WebAssembly, and C#.

Project overview

The Blazor WebAssembly application that we are going to build in this chapter is a Kanban board. The Kanban board will have three dropzones: High Priority, Medium Priority, and Low Priority. We will be able to drag and drop tasks between the dropzones and add additional tasks.

This is a screenshot of the completed application:

The build time for this project is approximately 60 minutes.
