>I'd almost like to reach for Blazor, but if it's at all public-facing, I don't think I can justify using Blazor at this time.

What are your concerns with Blazor for public facing apps?

Try navigating to the site for the Blazor material design library, MudBlazor, on a mobile browser:

As much as I want Blazor to work out well, those load times are too abysmal for me to seriously consider Blazor outside of internal apps.

I wonder how well mud Blazor works in a MAUI Blazor app when it's all packaged locally and compiled to native.

Probably great if I had to guess; I've also used Tailwind in a MAUI Blazor app to great effect. The only thing is: there is no DOM for MAUI Blazor components (only HTML & CSS are valid), but since Mud components work for Blazor server okay I'd imagine that wouldn't cause any issues.

Honestly I think this is where Blazor really shines: not in a web app, but as an alternative to the old XAML-based UIs - or even better, an alternative to Electron for desktop app development.

Oh wow - I thought it was broken.

Nope, just loading.
