Study Notes
Blazor WebAssembly
- Runs on the HTML5 standard WebAssembly runtime present in modern browsers
- Works similar to the server version, but with Razor pages running inside the browser
- Updates the DOM with direct JavaScript interop, instead of using SignalR
Advantages of Blazor WebAssembly
- Easy to create a Progressive Web App (PWA) since the code runs in the browser
- Can use any kind of backend server or even a file share, without needing a .NET-compatible server
- No round trips, allowing for faster screen updates
Disadvantages of Blazor WebAssembly
- Large footprint and many files to download
- Need to create a Web API to access on-site resources
- Cannot access the database directly
WebAssembly
- Based on open web standards, making it a native part of modern browsers
- Allows C# code to be executed in the client browser without plugins or transpiling
- Compile code in WASM format, which gets downloaded and Just-In-Time compiled into native code
C# Browser Execution
- Browser only understands JavaScript, but WebAssembly allows C# code execution
- Compilation and parsing happens on the server before the browser loads
Blazor
- Uses ASP.NET MVC approach for building applications
- Uses Razor syntax to generate HTML
- Combines C# code with HTML in cshtml or razor files
- Name comes from a combination of Browser and Razor
Blazor Hosting Models
- Can run client-side in the browser on a WebAssembly-based .NET runtime (Blazor WebAssembly) or server-side in ASP.NET Core (Blazor Server)
- App and component models are the same regardless of the hosting model
Blazor Server
- Implementation of the Blazor user-interface framework as part of ASP.NET Core
- Deploys to a web server, generating HTML on request
- Uses SignalR for communication between client and server
Learn about Blazor WebAssembly, an implementation of the Blazor user-interface framework that runs on the WebAssembly runtime in modern browsers. Understand how it functions similarly to the server version but operates within the browser, creating a render tree for UI components.
