That might have been me before last Xmas, as we had to convert an
established Silverlight app to HTML5. The coolest thing at the time was
Angular (or JS insert-name-here) so I asked for development quotes and did
a lot of playing around and study on the subject. I was so shocked by what
I found that we have abandoned the planned rewrite using JS because it's
like coding into a minefield. I have summarised my opinion of the whole
"Web" in general in my blog post I'm in the future of the Web and it
doesn't work
.
I expect some people could have blazing arguments over what I've said.

On a happier note though ... I'm also following WebAssembly and Blazor
keenly and I'm praying for rapid development to bring it up to the point
where our familiar languages and tools can be used to create and deploy
modern apps with ease. All the big names seem to be behind this endeavour,
so let's hope that JavaScript's grave is already being dug. I haven't
personally used any of the stuff yet because of the number of warnings on
the web sites about how immature it is at the moment.

Thanks Eddie

Yeah I saw Blazor the other day as well and I am following it closely.

I get the feeling (rightly or wrongly) that Web Assembly is the direction
the industry seems to be taking with a number of groups starting to develop
tools and frameworks around it.

Hi Grant,

A slightly different approach, but if your looking for C#/WebAssembly with no 
javascript, there is this project on github https://github.com/aspnet/Blazor. 
This is an experimental UI Framework using C# and WebAssembly.. It looks fairly 
promising, but it’s still a long way off yet.

Folks
I remember seeing a post on here some time back about tech choices for creating 
a browser based product.I am one of those still lamenting the tragic demise of 
Silverlight and who looks upon the stinking morass that is the Javascript 
"eco-system" with inconsolable horror, so I was pleased to see this earlier 
today :

http://cshtml5.com 
... and more in particular, this forum thread, where they talk about how they 
are dealing with the emerging Web Assembly technology :
http://forums.cshtml5.com/viewtopic.php?f=2=8185
The basic version is free, so I'm thinking about giving this a look but before 
I dive in, has anyone had any experience using this?

Cheers
