Debugging Blazor WebAssembly

Blazor WebAssembly can of course be debugged as well, but there are some things we need to think about. Since we have our exception page in our shared library, we can go straight into debugging.

But let's start with breakpoints:

1. Set BlazorWebAssembly.Server as startup project.
2. Press F5 to debug the project.

Here we can notice the first difference – assuming we still have the breakpoint we set in the Debugging Blazor Server section (in the LoadPosts method), the breakpoint did not get hit.
