Introducing Blazor, Microsoft's innovative framework for building interactive client-side web UIs using .NET. Central to this discussion is an explanation of WebAssembly (WASM), a cutting-edge web standard enabling high-performance applications directly in the browser, allowing C# and .NET to function without plugins or recompilations to JavaScript. This talk delineates between Blazor WebAssembly, which runs .NET code in the browser via WASM, and Blazor Server, which executes .NET code on the server, maintaining a real-time connection with the client through SignalR.

Attendees will gain insights into implementing reusable components, a cornerstone of efficient Blazor development. These components encapsulate functionality self-contained, promoting code reuse and maintainability. The session will cover practical demonstrations of building and consuming such components, including parameterization and event handling.

The talk will explore state management, application structuring, and performance optimization, equipping developers with the knowledge to build robust, maintainable, scalable Blazor applications. Attendees will leave with a comprehensive understanding of Blazor, poised to leverage its full potential in modern web development projects.
