WebAssembly, Blazor, web technologiesAbstract
This paper presents a study of WebAssembly and Blazor technologies, aiming to introduce their fundamental concepts, advantages and practical applications. WebAssembly bytecode can be executed in various environments, however this paper focuses on its use within the .NET ecosystem due to its extensive capabilities and popularity among developers. The paper provides an overview of the opportunities these technologies offer and contributes to a better understanding of their application in modern industry.
