Blazor is a free, open-source web framework designed mainly for developing web UI components. It offers users versatile hosting solutions by providing developers with several options for deploying applications. These options include Blazor WebAssembly, which runs on the client side of the browser and executes .NET applications, Blazor Server, which runs on the server side within the ASP.NET Core runtime environment, and Blazor Hybrid, which allows Razor components to run natively on the device.

The different Blazor hosting models give developers multiple ways to deploy their applications. Blazor WebAssembly can work offline and fully utilizes the client's capabilities and resources. Blazor Server loads applications faster and supports environments with limited device resources. Blazor Hybrid combines web technologies with the device's native capabilities, enabling shared code use across different platforms. These various hosting approaches offer flexibility for a customized user experience, improved performance, and increased productivity, allowing developers to quickly create modern and feature-rich applications.
