I really don't get the push of Blazor everywhere instead of its original WebAssembly target.

It is like the Web folks, that don't get anything else, are now pushing where .NET goes, mostly since .NET is now under Azure org chart.

I have done Web and native since "forever", not everything has to be for everything.




Yes, .net is for azure cloud webapps, that's how modern software is made. Then wrap them in electron to make them native.


WebView2 would probably be the way to go, now... at least for Windows as the target.

Even the "port to WinUI" from UWP for the PhotosApp, is in similar vein, making use of Webview2 instead of native Windows.

When Microsoft teams behave as such, why should we keep paying attention?

For native Windows, Forms, WPF, and even MFC is way better in VS tooling than WinUI C++.


I can't tell if this is sarcasm. I really hope it is
