Look to the future, not to the past.

I mean, Microsoft seems to be making it clear that the replacement for old-school ASP.NET formsy apps to be Blazor, which is C# you write that runs in the browser via WASM. Makes making SPAs easier if that’s your stack.

I'm rewriting an MVC 5 app in Blazor as we speak. I'm "full-stack" but my JS skills are pretty low compared to C#, which I am extremely comfortable with. It is actually extremely fun to work with. Havin ability to inject a service directly into a page is amazing.

I'm hoping Blazor gets more popular. However, I will see how this project goes and if I hit any major road blocks, so my opinion my shift. So far it seems like a great option.

What I would really love is to see XAML-like layout in the browser. CSS is a mess I can never wrap my mind around even with the flex model. Whereas the XAML model is much simpler (a measure pass to size components, an arrange pass to lay them).

Look to what’s being used in prod, not HN hype.
