Clean Architecture w/ Blazor 🔥, Blazor in the Industry 🚀, .NET Web Academy Enrollment Closing Soon 🎓
Hey Reader,
Today, we're diving into two burning questions that have been on a lot of your minds: How to implement Clean Architecture in a Blazor Web App and whether Blazor is viable in the industry.
🔥 Implementing Clean Architecture with Blazor on YouTube
In my newest video tutorial, I break down the essentials of setting up a Clean Architecture for your Blazor Web App in Visual Studio. We'll explore the four layers - Domain, Application, Infrastructure, and Presentation - and how they seamlessly integrate.
💻 Prefer Reading? Here's the Essence
Here's what you need to know:
Start with a blank solution in Visual Studio and create a "src" folder for all your projects.
Begin layering by setting up three class library projects: "Domain," "Application," "Infrastructure". For the Presentation layer, kick off a new project with the "Blazor Web App" template, which will then be the starting project.
With Clean Architecture, each layer points inwards to ensure separation of concerns. A common industry practice allows the presentation layer to directly reference the infrastructure layer.
Ensure proper project referencing: Application refers to Domain, Infrastructure to Application, and Presentation to Infrastructure (taking the shortcut here).
For service registration, don't bunch it all in the Presentation layer's Program.cs. Add a DependencyInjection.cs file in both Application and Infrastructure layers with an extension method for the IServiceCollection. Invoke this in the Presentation layer's Program.cs.
That's it!
🚀 Blazor in the Real World: BurnRate's Growth Journey
A lot of you have been asking if people really use Blazor for real work.
