Good luck doing Blazor in straight F# or VB without C# glue code, does it answer?

There is, in fact, a package that does just that: https://github.com/slaveOftime/Fun.Blazor (and there are others IIRC)

Now do the same in Visual Studio New Project, language F# or VB, without similar community projects.

I doubt that teams which employ F# are affected by default template selection in Visual Studio in any way, shape or form (if they use VS at all) :)

And companies which strictly choose only whatever comes out of box are unlikely to use F# anyway. The concept itself is incorrect and, I argue, must not be applied beyond ASP.NET Core and EF Core. There are no "first-party" frameworks in many other languages in either case so it is an unfair and flawed argument in the context of .NET.

Not unfair at all, and a clear shift of goalposts from how .NET was sold in 2001, and has been for almost 15 years, until management decided only C# gets invited for the new party.

Do you want a refresh from Visual Studio.NET and further releases until this stop being a thing?
