Today, we’re announcing .NET Core 3.1 Preview 1. .NET Core 3.1 will be a small release focused on key improvements in Blazor and Windows desktop, the two big additions in .NET Core 3.0. It will be a long term support (LTS) release with an expected final ship date of December 2019. 

Try .NET is an interactive documentation generator for .NET Core. 

Use Try .NET to create executable C# snippets for your websites or, interactive markdown files that users can run on their machine. 

Try .NET execute C# code in client side using Blazor and Web Assembly. 

https://github.com/dotnet/try 

 WebAssembly is one of the newest technologies to hit the web dev world with some promising new features around performance and expanding the boundaries of web languages. We’ll take a look at using it with Blazor to allow .NET developers to create a SPA.
