Book Description

Blazor WebAssembly allows you to build web apps without the need for JavaScript, plugins, or add-ons. This guide teaches you how to build single-page web applications through project-based chapters. The author provides step-by-step instructions for each project as well as a video of her following those exact steps.

In this updated edition, there are new chapters on integrating artificial intelligence into web apps built with Blazor WebAssembly. You'll start with simple standalone web apps and gradually progress to hosted web applications with SQL Server backends. Each project covers a different concept from the Blazor WebAssembly ecosystem, such as Razor components, JavaScript interop, security, events, debugging, state management, hosted applications, REST APIs, and AI. The book's projects get more challenging as you progress, but you don't have to read them in order, which makes this book a valuable resource for beginners as well as those who just want to dip into specific topics.

By the end of this book, you'll be building your own web apps with .NET and C# using Blazor WebAssembly.

What you will learn

Integrate AI features into modern Blazor web applications
Build client-side web apps using C# and Blazor WebAssembly
Master Razor components, QuickGrid, templated components, events, and Razor class libraries
Build and consume ASP.NET Web APIs with Entity Framework
