Web Development with Blazor

Hello Blazor

Thank you for picking up your copy of Web Development with Blazor. This book intends to get you started as quickly and smoothly as possible, chapter by chapter.

This book will start by guiding you through the most common scenarios you’ll come across when you begin your journey with Blazor, and you will also dive into a few advanced scenarios later on. This book aims to show you what Blazor is – Blazor Server, Blazor WebAssembly, Blazor Hybrid, and on top of that, the new Server-Side Rendering (SSR) – and how it all works practically to help you avoid traps.

This is the book’s third edition; much has happened since the first edition. .NET 6 and .NET 7 were released, and for the second edition, I updated the content to reflect the latest changes and functionalities at the time of writing.

This edition has been updated to include all the new things in .NET 8, and there is a lot to uncover.

I hold Blazor presentations all over the world, and there are common questions that I get asked a lot. Without going into too much detail, they are often related to download size or time when it comes to Blazor WebAssembly and continuous connection to Blazor Server. In .NET 8, we can leverage a new mode, SSR, that solves all of these problems in one swift blow. Okay, maybe not all problems, but we are well on our way to solving them. A common belief is that Blazor is WebAssembly, but WebAssembly is just one way of running Blazor. Many books, workshops, and blog posts on Blazor focus heavily on WebAssembly.

This book will cover Blazor WebAssembly, Blazor Server, Blazor Hybrid, and SSR. There are a few differences between the different ways of running Blazor; I will point them out as we go along.

This first chapter will explore where Blazor came from, what technologies made Blazor possible, and the different ways of running Blazor. We will also touch on which type (Blazor WebAssembly, Blazor Server, or Blazor Hybrid) is best for you.

In this chapter, we will cover the following topics:

  • Why Blazor?
  • Preceding Blazor
  • Introducing WebAssembly
  • Introducing .NET 8
  • Introducing Blazor

Technical requirements

It is recommended that you have some knowledge of .NET before you start, as this book is aimed at .NET developers who want to utilize their skills to make interactive web applications. However, it’s more than possible that you will pick up a few .NET tricks if you are new to the world of .NET.

Key benefits

  • Create a production-ready Blazor application from start to finish
  • Find out how, when, and why to use Blazor Server and Blazor WebAssembly, as well as Blazor Hybrid
  • Explore crucial new coverage of streaming rendering, server-side rendering (SSR), flexible hosting models, and Blazor templates

Description

Web Development with Blazor is your essential guide to building and deploying interactive web applications in C# – without relying on JavaScript. Written by an early Blazor adopter and updated for .NET 8, this book takes you through the end-to-end development of an example app, helping you to overcome common challenges along the way. You’ll pick up both Blazor Server and Blazor WebAssembly and discover cutting-edge tools to enrich your development experience. Responding to evolving needs, this edition introduces flexible hosting models, allowing you to mix and match hosting approaches to create flexible and scalable Blazor applications. It also presents the new Blazor templates, which provide ready-made solutions to simplify and expedite development. You'll learn about the game-changing server-side rendering (SSR), a hybrid hosting model blending the strengths of Blazor Server and Blazor WebAssembly, as well as streaming rendering, a new technique that boosts the performance and user experience of Blazor apps. By the end of this book, you'll have the confidence you need to create and deploy production-ready Blazor applications using best practices, along with a big-picture view of the Blazor landscape.

Who is this book for?

This book is for .NET web developers and software developers who want to use their existing C# skills to build interactive web applications running either inside the web browser using Blazor WebAssembly, on the server using Blazor Server, or a combination of the two. You'll need basic knowledge of C# and prior exposure to .NET web development before you get started; the book will guide you through the rest.

What you will learn

  • Understand how and when to use Blazor Server, Blazor WebAssembly, and Blazor Hybrid
  • Learn how to build simple and advanced Blazor components
  • Explore how Minimal APIs work and build your own API
  • Discover how to use streaming rendering and server-side rendering (SSR)
  • Mix and match different hosting models to create flexible and scalable Blazor apps
  • Familiarise yourself with the new Blazor templates that simplify development
  • Debug your Blazor Server and Blazor WebAssembly applications

What happens if an Early Access Course is cancelled? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

Where can I send feedback about an Early Access title? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

If you have any feedback about the product you're reading, or Early Access in general, then please fill out a contact form here and we'll make sure the feedback gets to the right team. 

Can I download the code files for Early Access titles? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We try to ensure that all books in Early Access have code available to use, download, and fork on GitHub. This helps us be more agile in the development of the book, and helps keep the often changing code base of new versions and new technologies as up to date as possible. Unfortunately, however, there will be rare cases when it is not possible for us to have downloadable code samples available until publication.

When we publish the book, the code files will also be available to download from the Packt website.

How accurate is the publication date? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

The publication date is as accurate as we can be at any point in the project. Unfortunately, delays can happen. Often those delays are out of our control, such as changes to the technology code base or delays in the tech release. We do our best to give you an accurate estimate of the publication date at any given time, and as more chapters are delivered, the more accurate the delivery date will become.

How will I know when new chapters are ready? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We'll let you know every time there has been an update to a course that you've bought in Early Access. You'll get an email to let you know there has been a new chapter, or a change to a previous chapter. The new chapters are automatically added to your account, so you can also check back there any time you're ready and download or read them online.

How do I buy Early Access content? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

Early Access is a way of us getting our content to you quicker, but the method of buying the Early Access course is still the same. Just find the course you want to buy, go through the check-out steps, and you’ll get a confirmation email from us with information and a link to the relevant Early Access courses.

What is Early Access? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

Keeping up to date with the latest technology is difficult; new versions, new frameworks, new techniques. This feature gives you a head-start to our content, as it's being created. With Early Access you'll receive each chapter as it's written, and get regular updates throughout the product's development, as well as the final course as soon as it's ready.We created Early Access as a means of giving you the information you need, as soon as it's available. As we go through the process of developing a course, 99% of it can be ready but we can't publish until that last 1% falls in to place. Early Access helps to unlock the potential of our content early, to help you start your learning when you need it most. You not only get access to every chapter as it's delivered, edited, and updated, but you'll also get the finalized, DRM-free product to download in any format you want when it's published. As a member of Packt, you'll also be eligible for our exclusive offers, including a free course every day, and discounts on new and popular titles.
