Building Web Components Using Blazor WebAssembly
This chapter is about building web components using Blazor WebAssembly. These can be rich and interactive user interfaces that render as HTML and CSS to provide cross-platform browser support.
There are many advantages to using .NET for client-side web development. You can write 99% of your code using C# instead of JavaScript and interop with JavaScript modules for the other 1%. You can share business logic between server and client because Blazor implements .NET Standard as well as the latest .NET 7 libraries, so you can use the extensive older .NET libraries, both from Microsoft and third-parties.
This chapter will cover the following topics:
- Understanding Blazor
- Building Blazor components
- Building a Blazor data component
- Implementing caching using local storage
- Building Progressive Web Apps
