Why you shouldn’t compare Blazor to other JavaScript SPA frameworks

Blazor is a unique web framework that allows developers to build modern, interactive web-based user interfaces using C# and Razor, distinguishing it from traditional JavaScript-based Single Page Application (SPA) frameworks. Unlike others, Blazor leverages WebAssembly, enabling it to run .NET code directly in the browser, which enhances performance and allows the reuse of .NET libraries. This framework offers the advantage of a shared codebase for frontend and backend development, minimizing the need for JavaScript and making it easier for developers familiar with C# to transition to web development. Additionally, Blazor supports BlazorServer mode, which executes logic on the server for increased security, although it may introduce latency. While Blazor's WebAssembly and .NET integration makes direct comparisons with other SPA frameworks challenging, its potential to port legacy applications to the web and the robust support from the .NET ecosystem make it an attractive choice for companies looking to modernize their applications.
