Blazor sounds like a good starting point, but it is not yet ready to do
real world work.

I must admit, I had not looked at Blazor until now because I had been told
"it is just a toy, an experiment".  After looking at it, I feel that it has
the potential to be the basis of something transformational.



You can see more of the story at:
http://blog.stevensanderson.com/2017/11/05/blazor-on-mono/

Which has a link to a video of his demo app from NDC Oslo:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MiLAE6HMr10&feature=youtu.be&t=31m45s which
is seriously worth watching!



Then reading: https://github.com/SteveSanderson/Blazor

"An experimental web UI framework using C#/Razor and HTML, running
client-side via WebAssembly

The arrival of WebAssembly creates the possibility of building client-side
web applications using languages and runtimes that are more typically used
for native app development. Blazor runs .NET code in the browser via the
Mono runtime, which itself is compiled to WebAssembly and asm.js.

The programming model will be familiar to anyone who's worked with Razor
(the C#/HTML page format used by ASP.NET MVC and ASP.NET Pages)."



Which all looks really promising, until you read…



Can I build a real production app with this?

No. It's very incomplete. There isn't yet any support for producing
optimised production builds or connecting a debugger.



Why isn't there an issue tracker? How do I file issues?

You don't file issues. There's no support for this. It's experimental.


This is all bleeding edge stuff, that blog post is from 5-Nov

I will wait a little longer before making any bets on this...

But I repeat...

I feel that Blazor has the potential to be the basis of something
transformational!
