You'll gain hands-on experience in creating orders, processing payments, and managing transactions. Finally, you will learn how to deploy your Blazor applications on Azure, including setting up Azure SQL databases and deploying both Blazor Server and Blazor Client applications to the cloud. This course is ideal for developers who are ready to tackle the security and deployment aspects of Blazor, along with integrating payment systems to create real-world applications. By the end of this course, you will confidently deploy Blazor applications and securely manage user data and payment processing.

Syllabus

Authentication and Authorization - Blazor Server

In this module, we will dive deep into securing your Blazor Server application with authentication and authorization. You’ll scaffold identity, implement role-based access control, and handle user authentication state effectively. This section ensures a secure foundation for building enterprise-level Blazor applications.

Authorization in API

In this module, we will explore securing your API by adding identity, creating sign-in/sign-up endpoints, and configuring authentication with Bearer tokens. We’ll also cover how to expose authenticated APIs securely, ensuring only authorized users can access sensitive data.

Blazor WASM - Authentication and Authorization

In this module, we will secure your Blazor WASM application with advanced authentication techniques. You will learn how to handle JWT tokens, manage authentication state, and implement a seamless login and logout process. This section prepares your WASM app for robust user security and experience.

Stripe Payment

In this module, we will guide you through integrating Stripe into your Blazor WASM application for secure payment processing. You will learn how to create orders, manage payments, and handle transaction statuses. This section ensures your Blazor app can accept payments and process them efficiently.

Order Management

In this module, we will build an order management system within Blazor that allows for order creation, viewing, shipping, and refunding. Using Radzen components, you’ll create dynamic UIs for order details and efficiently track and manage each order’s lifecycle.

Email and CSS Isolation

In this module, we will explore email integration within your Blazor applications, using tools like MailKit, MimeKit, and SendGrid. You’ll learn to send secure emails for actions such as order confirmations or user notifications, while also handling potential WebAssembly package issues.

Azure Deployment

In this module, we will walk you through the process of deploying your Blazor applications to Azure. You will configure Azure SQL for database management and deploy both your Blazor Server and Blazor WebAssembly client applications, ensuring your app is ready for production and accessible globally.
