To get the most out of this book

We recommend that you read the first two chapters of the book to understand how to set up your computer and how to use the empty Blazor WebAssembly project template. After that, you can complete the remaining chapters in any order. The projects in each chapter become more complex as you proceed through the book. The final two chapters require a SQL Server database in order to complete the project.

If you are using the digital version of this book, we advise you to type the code yourself or access the code via the GitHub repository (link available in the next section). Doing so will help you avoid any potential errors related to the copying and pasting of code.

This book assumes that you are an experienced web developer. You should have some experience with C# and HTML. Also, all of the projects use Bootstrap 4 as the CSS framework. If you have never used Bootstrap 4, we recommend that you familiarize yourself with it before proceeding, at https://getbootstrap.com/docs/4.6/getting-started/introduction.

There are some projects that use JavaScript and CSS, and two projects that use Entity Framework, but all the code is provided in the book.
