The best way to handle data from a front-end perspective, now in Blazor and C# !

Managing your application state in a Blazor application can be tedious. If you want to do it with native way, you'd need to (ab)use of parameters and callbacks to communicate between components.

Redux is a powerful and widely used library in the JavaScript community that helps you organize your front-end data the best way it can be. In this course, we are going to learn FROM SCRATCH how you can implement a Redux store pattern in your Blazor app !

In the first module, we'll start from a classic Blazor app that communicates with an API. We'll quickly see what are the main issues with this way of creating Blazor. In this module, we will:

  • Create our first state from a blank C# class file

  • Create our first action from a blank C# class file

  • Create our first reducer from a blank C# class file

  • Create the service that will be used in our Blazor components

  • Modify the list component to use our Redux implementation

  • Exercise : try to update the list component for the delete action by using our Redux implementation

At the end of this first module, you'll understand the basics of a Redux implementation and how it can enhance your application performance.

The second module will be focused on using an open-source rock-solid library to enhance our implementation. You'll learn:

  • How to install and configure this library

  • How to mutate our state and reducer to be compatible with this library

  • Exercise : try to update the list component to use the open-source library

  • Adding effects, a special kind of reducer, to handle asynchronous needs

  • Exercise : try to update the list component to use effect and respect the first SOLID principle (Single Responsibility)

  • Enable ReduxDevTools to be able to time travel with your application

  • Creating a middleware for the library to add custom behavior easily

At the end of this second module, you'll understand how to use this library effectivly and you'll be autonomous to implement a Redux store in your Blazor app.

To verify that you've mastered everything in the course, a complete independent exercise will the third and last module of the course, to let you practice.
