While I agree Blazor is great, everytime I use it it feels unfinished.

For example binding select inputs to object is not possible while it has been working in other Javascript frameworks for years. Ofcourse you can use workarounds but it always feels like a step back.

And for some project that use custom auth it can be difficult to auth both Blazor and Controllers if you need some.

But overall it is a great experience. And I think frameworks like Blazor and Liveview are the future.

That's what I always think about MS GUI frameworks.

My rant towards Microsoft:

Get some average students and let them build a real world demo application. Write down all the stupid questions they have and all the problems they struggle with. Consider them as bugs or bad design choices and solve them. Do that before you release stuff.

Microsoft delivers amazing quality in some fields, language design (c# and f#), ASP.NET Core and everything in Micrsoft.Extsions.* is amazing. Also .NET Core was a very successful project (after the hell of PCL and .NET Standard).

But WHY can't you build a proper and usable UI framework?!?!?!!!
