It’s a library. And therefore you can attach any javascript library of your choice as add-ons

State Management is more flexible

JSX syntax blends well together with javascript

Faster learning curve

Modern Web Development is challenging and the way we develop web apps are now different than before

You can reuse components effortlessly because they’re all just pure functions

Interested in learning Git? Well you've come to the right place! "Learn Git Branching" is the most visual and interactive way to learn Git on the web; you'll be challenged with exciting levels, given step-by-step demonstrations of powerful features, and maybe even have a bit of fun along the way. 

  The "Blazor United" effort is really a collection of features we're adding to Blazor so that you can get the best of server & client based web development. These features include: Server-side rendering, streaming rendering, enhanced navigations & form handling, add client interactivity per page or component, and determining the client render mode at runtime. We've started delivering server-side rendering support for Blazor with .NET 8 Preview 3, which is now available to try out. We plan to deliver the remaining features in upcoming previews. We hope to deliver them all for .NET 8, but we'll see how far we get. 

The .NET team has built a linker to reduce the size of .NET Core applications. It is built on top of the excellent and battle-tested mono linker. The Xamarin tools also use this linker so it makes sense to try it out and perhaps use it everywhere! 

I think most developers start this way (code behind instead of XAML). XAML isn't immediately intuitive, but once you cross the boundary (of understanding) XAML tends to be a simpler approach. And, frankly, I tend to think that simplicity is always the better choice 

.NET 8 Preview 4 is now available and includes many great new improvements to ASP.NET Core.

Here’s a summary of what’s new in this preview release:

Blazor

Streaming rendering with Blazor components

Handling form posts with Blazor SSR

Route to named elements in Blazor

Webcil packaging for Blazor WebAssembly apps

API authoring

Expanded support for form binding in minimal APIs

API project template includes .http file

Native AOT

Logging and exception handling in compile-time generated minimal APIs

ASP.NET Core top-level APIs annotated for trim warnings

Reduced app size with configurable HTTPS support

Worker Service template updates

Additional default services configured in the slim builder

API template JSON configuration changes

Support for JSON serialization of compiler-generated IAsyncEnumerable unspeakable types

Authentication and authorization

Identity API endpoints

Improved support for custom authorization policies with IAuthorizationRequirementData

ASP.NET Core metrics

There are a lot of things to consider when choosing your database. Choose wisely because you’ll be married to that database for a long time. One case study is Amazon Marketplace which started with Oracle and tried to migrate after developing their own database solutions. The migration took somewhere between 5 to 10 years, and they seem to be still partially using Oracle. Though if your company reaches Amazon scale, then you’re probably doing very well.

One Blazor Template to Rule Them All in .NET 8

In .NET 8 there is a new project in town that unifies the developing experience between Blazor Server and Blazor Web Assembly application models. In this video we will go over the new template and how we can get started using it!
