Summary

In this chapter, we got the development environment up and running, and we created our first Blazor app for both Blazor WebAssembly and Blazor Server. You learned in what order classes, components, and layouts are called, which will make it easier to follow the code. We also covered some of the differences between a Blazor Server project versus a Blazor WebAssembly project.

In the next chapter, we will take a break from Blazor to take a look at Entity Framework Core 5 and set up our database. If you already know about Entity Framework, you can skip to Chapter 4, Understanding Basic Blazor Components, where we will go through components, dig deeper into the components in the template, and then create our first component.
