A Special Group Presentation on Blazor Architecture - Episode 138
About this Episode
Today on The Azure DevOps Podcast, Jeffrey Palermo is sharing an exclusive presentation on Blazor Architecture Patterns.
Blazor is one of the new frameworks that has a lot to offer and is bringing many unique aspects together. With there already being so many fantastic developer tutorials and how-to's on Blazor, Jeffrey is instead going to be focusing on an architectural look at Blazor. Specifically, how the architecture works, as well as how you, as a developer, should be thinking about Blazor so that when you do choose to make use of it in its various forms, you can make the appropriate choice for your situation.
Jeffrey covers a variety of topics in this presentation and it is jam-packed full of tips, advice, techniques, tools, resources, and how-tos! He speaks about the patterns that are appropriate for every Blazor architect to consider, how the different flavors of Blazor operate at the architectural level, how Blazor handles memory management, the high-level hub-and-spoke architecture and how it can apply to a Blazor application, eventing throughout the user interface, how to test Blazor applications, and the unique things you need to do when monitoring a Blazor application when it's running in production.
Be sure to tune in as this presentation is beneficial for all .NET developers and those who make use of the Microsoft platform!
