We Rebuilt Our Website with Blazor – Here's Why (and How)

Over the past, we’ve had a recurring question from our community: “Why isn’t your website built with Blazor?”

A fair question — especially since everything we offer is built around Blazor:

• Free Radzen Blazor Components
• Radzen Blazor Studio, our powerful low-code IDE for building Blazor apps
• Radzen Blazor for Visual Studio, the extension that streamlines Blazor development within the Visual Studio environment.

So, we decided it was time to practice what we preach. We rebuilt our entire website with Blazor. And yes, it now runs entirely on the same tech we develop and support every day.

Here is a preview of the site on different screen sizes with the premium Fluent Dark theme. You can use the theme picker in the site navigation to preview all themes.

Why We Made the Switchlink

Blazor has matured into a capable, production-ready framework. While our legacy site worked well enough, it wasn’t showing what Blazor can really do — especially when paired with our components and tools.

We wanted:

• A better reflection of our product and ecosystem
• A real-world use case to improve our components
• To answer the “why not Blazor?” question with a working example

What We Usedlink

We rebuilt the site using Blazor WebAssembly with server prerendering.

This gives us the best of both worlds:

• Performant client-side experience thanks to Blazor WASM
• Initial HTML rendered on the server, which improves SEO and perceived load speed
• Seamless transition to full interactivity once the WASM app loads

Naturally, we used Radzen Blazor Components across the board — for UI, layout, forms and navigation.

What We Learnedlink

Rebuilding our website wasn’t just a branding decision — it was an opportunity to put our tools under real pressure.

Home things we discovered along the way:

Polish matters

A public-facing site demands attention to design and performance — great motivation for tightening up component behavior like the animations that we introduced in Radzen Blazor Components v7.0.

Blazor is ready

From routing to layout, Blazor handled everything with stability and flexibility.

Found bugs and fixed them

A great side benefit! We discovered edge cases in our own components and addressed them immediately.

Shipped two new components

• RadzenToc for in-page navigation
• RadzenMarkdown for rendering Markdown content in Blazor apps.

The Resultlink

What you see now is the result of building in Blazor with the same tools we offer you:

• Improved site responsiveness
• Cleaner, more maintainable codebase
• Real-world testing ground for Radzen products

Going Forwardlink

We’re proud to say the site is finally aligned with our mission: Rapid application development should be zen experience empowering developers to create first class web apps that look beautiful and work on every screen size.

If you’ve been on the fence about going all-in on Blazor, consider this our challenge to you. It’s ready. And if you’re using Radzen Blazor Studio, you’re already halfway there.
