This article introduces you to Blazor and its reasons for a lot of publicity and compares it with JavaScript. The content is very detailed. Interested friends can use it for reference. I hope it will be helpful to you.

Over the past few years, JavaSceipt has been a popular and widely used language in single-page applications. But recently, Microsoft introduced a framework called Blazor, which allows us to develop browser-based applications in the C # language.

What is Blazor?

Blazor (Browser+Razor) is a brand-new website development framework introduced by Microsoft, which can develop browser-based applications using C # language and Razor syntax while using HTML and CSS. Previously, developers needed to execute Razor views on the server side to render HTML in browsers-but now Razor views can be executed on the client side.

Because Blazor uses WebAssembly, we don't need to install and run any third-party plug-ins or additional devices in a web browser. With Blazor, you can use the C # language to develop client and server ports to make your work more comfortable by sharing libraries and code.

The reasons behind the wide publicity

Blazor's ranking has risen rapidly in a short period of time, and people have compared it to the popular javascript framework. There is a lot of discussion about the future development of client-side websites, and these discussions and comparisons make Blazor more popular. Let's take a look at what makes Blazor unique.

As I mentioned at the beginning, the main highlight of Blazor is the ability to develop and execute browser-based applications in the C # language. Over the past few years, JavaScript (or TypeScript) has been the preferred programming language for creating front ends. If you are a .NET developer, to become a full-stack website developer, you must learn extra JavaScript. With Blazor, you can use the C # language to develop both the server and the client, which is the main advantage of Blazor for me.

Unlike JavaScript, Blazor is precompiled to an intermediate language. This feature has a significant advantage when it comes to performance-demanding applications running in browsers. In addition, when more processing power is needed, Blazor applications can work offline for a period of time, such as PDF generators, game algorithms, and so on.

In addition to the above, Blazor has many features / advantages:

Blazor does not need a browser plug-in

Ability to perform complete .NET debugging

Use the latest web browser features

A model that can build a user interface

Strong browser compatibility (even if the object is an older version)

Dependency injection

Code can be shared between user and server

JavaScript Vs. Blazor

Will Blazor replace JavaScript? will JavaScript always maintain its dominant position? Everyone is looking for answers. It's too early to make direct predictions or conclusions about these issues, but we can compare some of JavaScript's dominant frameworks with Blazor to see the differences.

Blazor vs. React

Many people think that React is the best library for web component development.

Although it is difficult to compare the two, we must recognize that React is well-organized, has a reliable performance, and has a strong community.

The prosperity and development of React ecosystem is inseparable from excellent libraries and frameworks. I think the tools and libraries in this process, like Bit (Github), are real brakes that help manage and share React components.

This makes React a "universal language" that provides libraries of applications for web, CLI, iOS, Android, Windows, and so on. Combined with component sharing tools like Bit, React is hard to surpass.

By contrast, Blazor is new, but inherits the style of its well-built replica Razor, so we don't think it's brand new for developers. In addition, because developers using Blazor use the C # language, the transition will be faster for any .NET developer. Although the mature React has a large number of characteristics and advantages, we also note that apart from the number of years, Blazor also has many advanced functions.

Similar to React, we can deploy Blazor as a static file.

You can use NuGet package.

You can use the same components on both the client side and the server side. (of course, this is also possible when using JS/TS.)

Blazor has built-in support for routing, validation, and form processing.

This is just some of the features provided by Blazor. If your development team is good at using JavaScript, continuing to use React is a good choice; if you are loyal to .NET rather than JavaScript, and are starting a new project, Blazor is a good choice to consider.

Blazor vs. Angular

Angular is another popular JavaScript framework. Compared with React, it is more of a complete framework than a library. Angular provides the client with a MVC architecture to simplify development and test the process.

By comparison, Angular is still in the lead because of its high profile, stability, and production readiness. In addition, Angular fully supports PWA, while the server side of Blazor is not yet compatible.

Furthermore, because Angular uses TypeScript, it is more relevant and understandable to C # language developers than JavaScript. With Angular in control of the situation, I don't see any breakthrough features of Blazor that can prompt people who are good at TypeScript to switch to Blazor.

It is too early to say that JavaScript will be replaced, but I have to say that Blazor has a promising future.

About understanding Blazor and its reasons for a lot of publicity and comparing it with JavaScript. So much for sharing here. I hope the above content can help you to some extent and learn more knowledge. If you think the article is good, you can share it for more people to see.
