Blazor WebAssembly: A Look at Its Potential for Enterprise Web Development
Exploring the Promise and Limitations of Blazor WebAssembly for Large-Scale Web Development.
Over the past two years, I have gained extensive experience using Blazor WebAssembly (Wasm) for enterprise web development. In this article, I would like to share my insights on this technology and its suitability for large-scale web development projects, particularly discussing its advantages and limitations.
As a developer who primarily worked with JavaScript frameworks, I was initially skeptical about Blazor Wasm. However, after using it for some time, I found it to be a promising technology for web development. I was particularly impressed with the well-defined component lifecycle and the ability to call JavaScript functions from within a component and vice versa, using JavaScript Interop.
Nonetheless, during our early adoption of Blazor Wasm, we encountered a significant challenge: the limited availability of component libraries. Although there are now a few component libraries on the market, we often found ourselves having to develop standard components from scratch, consuming valuable development time.
