What's New in ASP.NET Core 8 and Blazor 8

on YouTube ↗46m

" summary

.NET 8 is LTS (three years) and the upgrade from .NET 7 is urgent because support ended; demos show minimal APIs gain real features like FromForm model binding and a new Identity API endpoints (register + login) returning access token that work with one line of code and a live Postman demo. Blazor adds static server-side rendering, streaming chunks for “loading” placeholders, and an auto mode that switches from server to WebAssembly, QuickGrid and CRUD scaffolding, AOT gRPC support, Aspire app templates with Redis/Docker dashboard, and measurable JSON and Razor performance gains.
