Summary
In this chapter, you were provided with an overview of the different technologies you can use with Blazor, such as server-side (Blazor Server), client-side (WebAssembly), desktop, and mobile. This overview should have helped you decide what technology to choose for your next project.
We then discussed how Blazor was created and its underlying technologies, such as SignalR and WebAssembly. You also learned about the render tree and how the DOM gets updated to give you an understanding of how Blazor works under the hood.
In the upcoming chapters, I will walk you through various scenarios to equip you with the knowledge to handle everything from upgrading an old/existing site, and creating a new server-side site, to creating a new WebAssembly site.
We’ll get our hands dirty in the next chapter by configuring our development environment and creating and examining our first Blazor App.
