Integrating Blazor with existing .NET web apps

ASP.NET's RazorComponent model is intuitive and brings productivity to web development. In this session we'll learn how RazorComponents aren't just for Blazor apps and how we can integrate the best part of Blazor with existing ASP.NET applications using: Razor Pages, MVC, and even other front-end technologies.

Practical AI Applications for Better a UX

Let's go beyond the basic AI chat demo and put AI to practical use. In this session you'll learn how Multi-modal Language Models or MLLMs are used to improve the user experience of applications. We'll see how Natural language processing is used to manipulate existing user interfaces to simplify user tasks by making apps more intuitive.

Responsive and Adaptive Tactics for Blazor Applications

In this session you'll learn about CSS techniques like CSS Grid, Flexbox and media queries. We will also explore techniques for adaptive the user interface at runtime for maximum control. These tactics apply to Blazor WASM, Server, and Blazor Hybrid.

The Future of Cross Platform Blazor

With .NET 6 Blazor can target multiple platforms. In this session we'll explore the various Blazor targets and how to choose between them. Learn the tradeoffs and advantages of: Blazor Hybrid, Blazor Progressive Web Apps (PWAs), and Blazor Electron.

This Session was Intentionally Left Null?

In this session we’ll discuss relatively new Nullable types in C# 8.0 and above. Nullable types are both useful and nuisance as the well-intended feature causes compiler warnings while attempting to help ensure stability. We’ll discuss patterns and practices for handling nullable values as they relate to .NET, ASP.NET and Blazor applications. Get an understanding of when to use nullable, how to correctly handle compiler warnings, and how set proper default values.

Blazor Stability Testing Tools for Bullet Proof Applications

.NET in the browser may sound like Blazor's strength, however the story of Blazor testing may just be its biggest potential upside. In this session we'll discuss what makes Blazor an ideal candidate for: Unit Testing, Integration Testing, and Automated System Testing.
