r/Blazor

i have an applications with a bunch of plugins and sub assemblies that create pages.

We are migrating from WPF and creating some new features also.

These pages have characteristics that can be automated so importing the assembly to routing should not be done, because mainly some may even conflict.

So i would like to route them manually and i can add a route to any component, but not integrated in the app:

- add a page, it loads only the page

- add the layout, it does not load the page

- add the app says route not found

WebServer.MapGet("/lm", () => new RazorComponentResult<Page>());

WebServer.MapGet("/lm2", () => new RazorComponentResult<Layout>());

WebServer.MapGet("/lm3", () =>

{

RazorComponentResult rr = new RazorComponentResult<WebApp>();

return rr;

}

);

Situation is we want to embed an app somewhere that doesn’t support wasm, but we also don’t want to have to involve the server for simple things like drop-down menus

Is this just not possible with blazor?

I am trying to Implement Cookie Authentication in Blazor Server-Side Rendering past few days, but I'm stuck.

My goal is: when user click the login button, after Authentication success i wand to store the cookie in browser.

The problem with Blazor SSR, the httpContext only available while the page begin pre-rendering. After the user click the login button the httpContext connection was already done, so i can't find the way to set the cookie via httpContext.

Here's what I've tried:

• After user press the login button, i get the cookie from rest-api response header and i store the cookie in scoped service and i try to store the cookie in browser by get the cookie via that scoped DI service in when user navigate to home-page after authenticate complete and i planned to set the cookie via OnInitilized method using httpContext.Response.Append() method, however, this dosen't work because the scoped service was recreate when new httpContext connection was established, so the cookie not longer available inside the service.

It is Actually Possible to set the cookie when user press the login button in blazor service-side rendering? Or it is only Possible with Blazor WASM?

If there is any recommended patten to implement the cookie authenticate in blazor SSR. I'd really appreciate the explanation.

I mentioned a couple weeks ago that we launched our new Template Editor, and it is a Blazor WASM app (within our Blazor Static site).

I also wrote a series of posts about how it works with a ton of code samples, internal considerations and more.

It turned from one reallllllly long post into 8 shorter (but still not short) posts.

TLDR:

Post	Description
Building a Visual Template Editor in Blazor WASM	A high-level tour of the decisions, architecture, and shared systems behind the editor.
Building Consistent Blazor UX with Source Generators	Turning typed C# models into consistent property controls, previews, and rendered blocks with source generators.
Undo, Redo, and Live Preview - No Diffs Needed	Compact property addresses, generated tracking facades, transactions, undo/redo, and preview state.
Why Our Blazor App Still Uses TypeScript	A practical split between Blazor-owned application state and TypeScript-owned browser behavior.
Beyond Text Replacement: Building Typed Template Variables	Keeping Handlebars for content while extending variables to colors, sizes, images, and other typed properties.
Building a System to Generate Complex CSS	Generating deterministic CSS for nested blocks, panels, previews, and both browser and server renderers.
Simplifying Complexity: MemoryPack to the Rescue	MemoryPack storage, read-time schema repair, and typed MagicOnion communication across browser and server.
Productionizing Our Blazor WebAssembly Editor	Runtime performance, trimming, loading experience, and browser-backed testing for a production Blazor WASM editor.

Hope you like it! Would love to know what you think, if there's anything you'd like more info on - or if you think something is dumb (and why ideally).

The US Government Publishing Office is currently recruiting for a senior Blazor developer to help develop a server-hosted, enterprise Blazor application that will manage the GPO's XML publishing operations. This is a full-time, work from home position. (Must be a US resident.) The heart of this application is an XML editor written in C# using the document builder. The application is supported by a middle tier of REST services and a back end developed using MarkLogic and SQL server. Email mrsmith@gpo for more information.

PhotinoX.Blazor is an independent fork and continuation of Photino.Blazor for building lightweight cross-platform desktop apps with Blazor and OS-native WebViews:

• Linux: WebKitGTK 4.1
• macOS: WKWebView
• Windows: WebView2

The 5.0 release is a major update across the PhotinoX stack. PhotinoX has moved from the older window-oriented model to an explicit application-oriented model built around PhotinoApplication, PhotinoDispatcher, and PhotinoWindow.

For Blazor apps, this means:

• explicit application/window separation;
• PhotinoBlazorApp owns shared services and application lifetime;
• PhotinoBlazorWindow owns per-window Blazor hosting state;
• better multi-window support with isolated root components, WebView manager state, dispatcher/synchronization context, and resource handling;
• unified app custom scheme on Windows, macOS, and Linux;
• BlazorWebView-style UrlLoading support for top-level navigation;
• handling for external links, target="_blank", and window.open(...);
• new native/window lifecycle events from PhotinoX (navigation and content loading);
• application-level notifications and shutdown/lifecycle handling;
• Target frameworks: net8.0, net9.0, and net10.0.

I'm starting to line up my next position, as my current contract is likely to come to an end in the next month or two.

I've been working with C# for over 20 years and have 30+ years experience as a software engineer/analyst.

Some of you may know me through Blazor University, which I created as a resource for learning Blazor. I hope some of you here have found it useful over the years.

I'm looking primarily for remote C#/.NET/Blazor contract work, although I'm also open to permanent positions and occasional office visits. I'm based in Staffordshire in the UK; Birmingham, Coventry, are okay for regular office visits and I will travel further for rarer visits.

If you know of any opportunities where my experience might be useful, please DM me. I'm happy to provide my CV and further details.

Which Markdown editor/previewer are you guys using for Blazor server? We need to implement markdown-formatted notes along with an editor for them in a blazor server app.

Recently built my first Blazor app, and not super happy with the architecture. It is kind of your standard CRUD app. It gets data from 2 different REST APIs.

I tried to do kind of clean architecture as I am more of a backend guy and that is what I am used to. I setup like this. The APIs are external.

• MyApp (Solution)
  • MyApp.Application (Project)
    • Components
    • Components.Layout
    • Components.Pages
    • Components.Shared
    • Configuration
    • Security
    • Services
  • MyApp.Common
    • Exceptions
    • Constants
  • MyApp.Domain (Project)
    • Exceptions
    • Models
  • MyApp.Infrastructure (Project)
    • Repositories
    • Http

My issue is that MyApp.Application.Services became kind of a dumping ground. I have a few pages that deal with customers so I ended up making a ICustomerService and CustomerService to put some shared logic and business rules in. Then that gets injected into multiple components where I deal with customers.

Reddit only letting me nest 2 levels of bullets so that is why component namespace is listed ahove like that

I feel like I should organize things around features, like have things under a customer namespace, but having trouble coming up with something that feels .NET like.

Any tips or suggestions would be appreciated. Or it would be super if you could point me at a public repo. My app is low-medium complexity, I don't need/want a high level of abstraction.

This is the last RC before the final ships in September. New AreaChart, master/detail in DataGrid, Overflow overhaul and much more...

See https://v5.fluentui-blazor.net/. Packages are on NuGet.

Oh btw, if you look closely in the image below, you will see the chart legend now supports rounded corners on the items. This pertains to all chart types we added earlier as well of course (if you set `RoundedCorners="true"`).

Example of the newly added AreaChart

I honestly get quite a lot of negative backlash whenever I share my projects. I don't really know why, but it is what it is. I still want to keep sharing the things I work on though.

Back when I was working on MudBlazor.Extensions, my Blazor component extension for MudBlazor, I also extended try.mudblazor and eventually took it over as try.mudex.org.

Since then, I've always wanted to build something similar to JSFiddle or CodePen, but specifically for Blazor.

I've finally started working on it and reached the first milestone:

playzor.net

playzor allows you to create Blazor fiddles and share them via embeds, so they can be integrated into other websites.

There are also packages available on NuGet (Playzor packages) that allow you to build and host your own editor.

This is actually what try.mudex.org is using now.

There are still quite a few open points and things that aren't perfect yet. It's definitely still a work in progress, but I wanted to share it anyway and get some feedback.

If you have a look at it, I'd be interested to hear what you think, what is missing, or what could be improved.

Also, I'm really bad at writing documentation. The README and docs were created with AI, so if something doesn't make sense or is missing, that's probably on me.

Sample macOS app with Counter and 2-way binding example, written with BlazorAppKit

Hi Folks, I had been working on this for two weeks for now. Now I have something of a blazor framework which can help with writing native macOS apps with Blazor syntax. It's of alpha quality but I believe it's a worthy Proof-of-Concept that the .NET community can take a look at.

https://github.com/Sathiyaraman-M/BlazorAppKit

This was inspired by one of Steve Sanderson's demos which showed writing a Flutter app with Blazor, which was super-cool but the source code was nowhere to be found. It's a shame that MS didn't adopt Blazor beyond HTML.

For sometime, I wanted to do something that's both Blazor and native. Given I'm on a mac these days, I started with writing an alternate impl for Blazor renderer to write native macOS apps, which relies on the AppKit bindings that come with .NET macOS SDK.

Although I call it a Blazor renderer, the actual rendering of the controls and views are still managed by AppKit entirely. For exposing the AppKit controls, there's a source-generator to generate the Adapter definitions and Component definitions.

I just want to get some thoughts and suggestions on this project.
