Docker 2009 Update Them To

Docker Engine enables containerized applications to run anywhere consistently on any infrastructure.

As a starter you might find yourself having a hard-time catching up with latest technologies because it will give you more confusion as to what sets of technologies to use and where to start.

We know that there are tons of resources out there that you can use as a reference to learn but you still find it hard to connect the dots in the picture.

If you are confused and no idea how to start building an ASP.NET Core and Blazor apps and running them on Docker, then this article is for you.

And then I started out exploring.NET Core on Mac and running it on Docker when version 1 came out and a year after, I started trying out dockerizing ASP.NET Core 2.0 on Mac environment.

It was a fun experiment but at the same time hard because I am used to Windows environment.

Building apps in Mac environment is bit different because we will be dealing with the new commands, tools, and the file structure.

In other words, I was not that familiar with the Mac environment and putting the pieces together was really a P.I.T.A.

Blazor is an experimental web UI SPA framework based on C, Razor, and HTML that runs in the browser via WebAssembly without JavaScript.

Yes, you heard that right without JavaScript That being said.

Blazor is still on its experimental stage and we cant guarantee anything until it will be officially released.

I think Blazor is going to be incredibly a hit and thats because I see WebAssembly as actually superseding JavaScript.

Sure, JavaScript and its frameworks arent going anywhere, but why would you teach a new programmer JavaScript when you can just teach them C, Python, etc.

Fortunately, I was able to find some time this week and gave Blazor a shot.

My first attempt was running it on Windows, but I also wanted to test out Blazor on Mac and running it on Docker.

With a lot of research, some patience and head scratching, I was able to connect the dots in the picture.

So thats why here I am trying to share the fun and experience to those who are also interested.

This article will walk you through on building your first Blazor app with ASP.NET Core Web API, Entity Framework Core, SQL Server and running them on a Docker container.

As you go along and until such time you finished following the article, you will learn the basic concepts and fundamentals of each of the technologies used for building the whole application and how each of them connects to each other.

If you already have installed the tools mentioned in the list below, then you may skip this step but just make sure you update them to the latest version as possible.

We will be using this editor to build a Blazor and ASP.NET Core Web API app using C code.

For more information about the features of Visual Studio Community edition, see.

I tagged it as optional because.NET Core SDK should be included when you install Visual Studio for MAC.
