Advanced Blazor

• Understanding of C#
• Knowledge of Blazor and JavaScript
• Experience with .NET framework

Audience

• Web Developers

Blazor is an open-source web framework written in C# that enables developers to create interactive web user interfaces and applications using C#. Entity Framework (EF) Core is an object-database mapper for .NET that provides developers with an automated mechanism for accessing and storing data in databases.

This instructor-led, live training (online or onsite) is aimed at web developers who wish to learn how to use Progressive Web Application (PWA) development features to create an app-like experience in a website using Entity Framework (EF) Core and Blazor.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to:

• Use the EF package to work with databases.
• Use Blazor components, services, dependency injection, layout, and routing.
• Create service workers to enable PWA features in an application.
• Utilize push notifications and other PWA features.

Format of the Course

• Interactive lecture and discussion.
• Lots of exercises and practice.
• Hands-on implementation in a live-lab environment.
