Building Interactive Web Components Using Blazor
This chapter is about using Blazor to build interactive web user interface components. You will learn how to build Blazor components that can execute their C# and .NET code on the web server or in the web browser.
When components execute on the server, Blazor uses SignalR to communicate necessary updates to the user interface in the browser.
When components execute in the browser using WebAssembly, they must make HTTP calls to interact with data on the server. You will learn more about this in Chapter 15, Building and Consuming Web Services.
In this chapter, we will cover the following topics:
- Reviewing the Blazor Web App project template
- Building components using Blazor
- Defining forms using the EditForm component
