Blazor WebAssembly Overview

Explore the fundamentals of Blazor WebAssembly in this lesson. Understand how it runs C# code in browsers using WebAssembly, the structure of a Blazor project, Razor components, and how these elements work together to build dynamic, client-side ASP.NET Core applications.

We'll cover the following...

There are two types of Blazor applications: Blazor WebAssembly and Blazor Server. Although they share many similarities, they have the following differences:

  • A Blazor WebAssembly application is compiled into WebAssembly and runs directly in the browser.

  • A Blazor Server application is a standard ASP.NET Core application hosted on the server where the web pages interact with the code on the server in real time.

In this lesson, we will get familiar with Blazor WebAssembly.

Introducing Blazor WebAssembly

Blazor WebAssembly is a framework based on .NET that enables developers to create interactive web applications using C#, Razor, and HTML. Unlike traditional web development frameworks that rely heavily on JavaScript for client-side interactions, Blazor WebAssembly allows developers to write front-end code in C#, which is then executed in the browser using WebAssembly.

WebAssembly is a binary instruction format that runs at near-native speed in modern web browsers. Blazor leverages this technology to enable compiled C# ...
