I come from a Laravel PHP background and I am new to ASP.NET Core and Blazor. I'm interested in exploring Blazor and planning to use PostgreSQL as the database and ASP.NET Core for the backend.
I have identified two hosting options I’d like to try:
- Blazor Server with interactive web assembly render mode
- Blazor web assembly
From my initial research, these two options seem quite similar, which is confusing me. My understanding is that Blazor Server with interactive web assembly rendering might be equivalent to Blazor web assembly, but I’m unsure if that's accurate.
Could someone clarify the key differences between these two approaches?
Specifically:
- How do they differ in terms of architecture, performance, and use cases?
- Is Blazor Server with interactive web assembly essentially the same as Blazor web assembly, or are there distinct advantages/disadvantages to each?
Any insights would be greatly appreciated.
