They are based on nightly build package at:

NUGET source

Design and use a command line module in console application

• Program.cs

Design a client (Blazor) module

• HelloModule.cs Client module definition.
• Index.razor Client module pages. It belongs to a different assembly from which Module belongs to because we want this assembly is lazy loading.

Design a GraphQL server module

• HelloServerModule.cs GraphQL server module definition.

Use a client module in Blazor websites

• ModulePageLayout.razor Layout and container for module pages.
• App.razor Lazy loading for js/css/sassemblies when routing.
• AntDesignModule.cs Definition of JS/CSS resources.
• ModuleSetup.cs Use modules in client.
• Startup.cs Blazor Server hosting.
• Program.cs Blazor WebAssembly hosting.
• index.html Clean index.html.

Use a GraphQL server module
