I avoided Blazor, despite multiple people on my teams pushing for it. It always felt like it fit in the same space as web forms and silverlight. A product created to fill a gap of developers that wrote desktop apps and don't want to learn how to write front end code for the web. Plus it binds you to the product lifecycle of a .net side project that likely will be abandoned.

While Blazor has some cool stuff built in, the cool stuff never felt worth the risk of building a product around it.

Honestly, I was wishing that Blazor was in the same space as web forms.

There is a market for front-end development that isn't steeped in the hell of actual front-end development. Blazor is almost the right idea but I think this incarnation is a dead end. Somebody needs to gather up all the pieces and figure it out for real.
