Known problems and potential improvements:

  • Server hosted Blazor browser console log: it does not work with JS, should be open a SignalR channel and receive all logs from server.
  • Debounce: Timer code is written in 3 times since Component cannot inherit from 2 base classes. Potential idea to create 1 base component with RenderFrangement as input/inputText, etc.
  • MaxLenght: Logic is written in 3 times since Component cannot inherit from 2 base classes.
  • Loading:
    • Set/Reset might be better to set with public property as a Parameter. Deprecate public methods to avoid using of @ref=""
  • ModalDialog:
    • Animate: has some problems it is CSS property and timer is not correct
    • Focus: refocusing previous element only works with Id. see: https://github.com/dotnet/aspnetcore/issues/26496
    • Open/Close might be better to set with public property as a Parameter. Deprecate public methods to avoid using of @ref=""
  • Typeahead:
  • Permalink control:
    • Link icon should have Tooltip to show "Copy link"
  • Toggle:
    • Switch and Button should have Tooltip support.
  • Toggle:
    • Tabs should have Tooltip support.
