Blazor is a web framework designed to run in the browser on a WebAssembly-based .NET runtime. Blazor Boilerplate aka Blazor Starter Template is a SPA admin template (WebAssembly / Core-Hosted) built with Blazor with a .NET Core 3.1 Server API. The UI for this application is by Material Design provided mostly by MatBlazor. Version 0.2.3 and below utilize AspNETCore Authorization / Authentication. Version 0.3.0 and up will be using Identity Server 4.

• To create a boilerplate with Blazor / Razor components that includes the most common functionality for an app that is lean yet powerful for anyone to start a real world application quickly.
• Avoid many external compnents & libraries which make it difficult to maintain, update, track down code, learn code and issues.
• This repository is community driven. It is not and never will be controlled by a corporation.
• Minimal Javascript. Currently only using them for SignalR for the Forum and MatBlazor / Material Desing. We may use components with JS in them but so far no Javascript has been written specifically for anything in the repository.

Please star, watch and fork! We'd greatly appreciate any contribution you make. I am very open to updates and features, though most feature requests will be depending on how much community support exists.

I (Enkodellc) started this repository as I was frustrated with the examples out there that people were charging money for and were in my opinion incomplete or closed source. I paid for 4-5 of these solutions with an Angular front-end and none of them were what I was looking for. This is my attempt to create something that developers can start a Blazor project with several great features to build from. I have a lot of experience with ASP.Net webforms an new to .NET Core and Blazor. This code is not meant to be perfect or follow every Best Practice. It though is my ambition to learn and get feedback on what Best Practices can be implemented. I will be migrating a Webforms app to Blazor so this is my opportunity to learn, share, grow and get feedback on what hopefully will be a great Blazor Starter Kit.

I have taken small solutions from other repositories and will do my best to recognize those contributions. I am very open to ideas and suggestions. I am not a great developer, but I try. So please take this into consideration when using this repository. If you wish to hire me for consulting or as a contractor please reach out via email or https://gitter.im/enkodellc.

• Make sure you have all pre-requisites installed.
• Keep It Simple Stupid: If you are running into issues with SQL / connection string. First CHECK both appsettings.json (appsettings.production.json for production) and (appsettings.development.json for development).
• Test out with SQLlite / file db. Then test out with a known good connection string.
• Go back to the Origin: BlazorBoilerplate was built off of BlazorWithIdentity so first step is to run this and try and publish. The reasoning is that this is a very lean project to reduce the amount of code and resources requiring debugging.
• If still failing get on Gitter BlazorBoilerplate for Blazor Boilerplate or Gitter aspnet/Blazor.
• Debugging is very limited on WebAssembly / Client-side Blazor, which this project is. The server side of the project can easily be debugged, just not there yet on the client-side code. Take a look at the "Dual" branch for SSB / CSB options. It may be a bit outdated.

Delete Existing Migrations in the BlazorBoilerplate.Server/Migrations Folder and then create your own migrations:
dotnet ef migrations add InitialApplicationDbMigration --context ApplicationDbContext -o Migrations\ApplicationDb
dotnet ef migrations add InitialConfigurationDbMigration --context DbContextOptionsBuilder -o Migrations\ConfigurationDb
dotnet ef migrations add PersistedGrantDbContext --context PersistedGrantDbContext -o Migrations\PersistedGrantDb

• Prerequisite: Install Docker Desktop
• Include / Reload docker-compose project in solution.
• Do Docker stuff - I don't have much experience with Docker.

• Looking for additional help with Azure documentation and steps.
