October Update: GitHub Copilot, PivotDataGrid, and more new tools to boost your Blazor development

October brings exciting updates across Radzen Blazor Studio and the Radzen Blazor Components library.

From AI-assisted coding with GitHub Copilot to powerful new UI components like PivotDataGrid, we’re making it easier than ever to build modern, data-rich Blazor applications with speed and confidence.

Radzen Blazor Studio — now even smarterlink

GitHub Copilot Autocomplete Supportlink

Accelerate your workflow with GitHub Copilot, now integrated directly into Radzen Blazor Studio.

With Copilot enabled, you can enjoy AI-powered code completions and suggestions while writing Blazor, C#, and Razor code — right inside the IDE. To get started, open the Settings panel and enable Copilot support.

This functionality requires a GitHub account with Copilot enabled.

CRM Application Template (now available during trial)link

You can now explore the CRM application template even during your trial period. This real-world sample app helps you understand how Radzen Blazor Studio works with data, components, and layouts — making it easier to jumpstart your next project.

Access it from the New Application dialog and start experimenting today.

New Radzen Blazor UI Componentslink

PivotDataGridlink

The new RadzenPivotDataGrid component lets you analyze large datasets with ease. Create powerful cross-tabulation tables, group and aggregate data dynamically, and uncover insights directly within your Blazor app — no external tools required.

Chatlink

Add conversational capabilities to your Blazor apps with the new RadzenChat component. It supports multiple participants and distinct user identities. Perfect for building customer support tools, collaboration dashboards, or AI-powered assistants.

Floating Action Button (FAB) & FabMenulink

Bring modern, mobile-inspired design to your web apps with RadzenFAB and RadzenFabMenu. Use the Floating Action Button to highlight your app’s most important action, or expand it into a FabMenu to give users quick access to multiple shortcuts.

Other Improvements & Breaking Changeslink

We’ve also made important structural updates to ensure smoother integration and greater flexibility across components.

• Unified ChatMessage model shared across RadzenChat, RadzenAIChat, and AIChatService.
• Sidebar updates:
  • Position="SidebarPosition.Start" — easily align your sidebar to the left, right, start, or end.
  • FullHeight property — control whether the sidebar spans the full height of the page or sits between the header and footer.

The components are part of the latest major Radzen.Blazor v8 - see full changelog.
