Controlling event propagation

In this recipe, we explore the process of controlling how events travel through the Document Object Model (DOM) within Blazor applications. Stopping default event propagation becomes crucial when we work with nested components or elements. You can ensure events such as clicks, hovers, or keyboard inputs have localized effects – thereby avoiding unintended ripple effects or behaviors in the UI. By mastering the control of event propagation, you can fine-tune interaction patterns within your application, leading to a smoother and more intuitive user experience.

Let’s allow users to click anywhere on the ticket record to display its details while ensuring that clicking on any of the nested administrative actions won’t propagate uncontrollably.

Getting ready

Before diving into controlling events propagation, do the following:

• Copy TicketManager...
