16 Feb 20246 minutes to read
This section briefly explains about how to include Blazor Carousel component in your Blazor Web App using Visual Studio.
Prerequisites
Create a new Blazor Web App
You can create a Blazor Web App using Visual Studio 2022 via Microsoft Templates or the Syncfusion Blazor Extension.
You need to configure the corresponding Interactive render mode and Interactivity location while creating a Blazor Web Application.
Install Syncfusion Blazor Navigations and Themes NuGet in the Blazor Web App
To add Blazor Carousel component in the app, open the NuGet package manager in Visual Studio (Tools → NuGet Package Manager → Manage NuGet Packages for Solution), search and install Syncfusion.Blazor.Navigations and Syncfusion.Blazor.Themes.
If you select an Interactive render mode as WebAssembly
or Auto
, you can install the NuGet package in the project any where to add component in Web App.
Alternatively, you can utilize the following package manager command to achieve the same.
Install-Package Syncfusion.Blazor.Navigations -Version 27.1.48
Install-Package Syncfusion.Blazor.Themes -Version 27.1.48
NOTE
Syncfusion Blazor components are available in nuget.org. Refer to NuGet packages topic for available NuGet packages list with component details.
Register Syncfusion Blazor Service
Open ~/_Imports.razor file and import the Syncfusion.Blazor
and Syncfusion.Blazor.Navigations
namespace.
@using Syncfusion.Blazor
@using Syncfusion.Blazor.Navigations
Now, register the Syncfusion Blazor Service in the ~/Program.cs file of your Blazor Web App.
If you select an Interactive render mode as WebAssembly
or Auto
, you need to register the Syncfusion Blazor service in both ~/Program.cs files of your Blazor Web App.
....
using Syncfusion.Blazor;
....
builder.Services.AddSyncfusionBlazor();
....
Add stylesheet and script resources
The theme stylesheet and script can be accessed from NuGet through Static Web Assets. Include the stylesheet reference in the <head>
section and the script reference at the end of the <body>
in the ~/Components/App.razor file as shown below:
<head>
....
<link href="_content/Syncfusion.Blazor.Themes/bootstrap5.css" rel="stylesheet" />
</head>
....
<body>
....
<script src="_content/Syncfusion.Blazor.Core/scripts/syncfusion-blazor.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
</body>
NOTE
Check out the Blazor Themes topic to discover various methods (Static Web Assets, CDN, and CRG) for referencing themes in your Blazor application. Also, check out the Adding Script Reference topic to learn different approaches for adding script references in your Blazor application.
Add Syncfusion Blazor Carousel component
Add the Syncfusion Blazor Carousel component in .razor
file inside the Pages
folder. If an interactivity location as Per page/component
in the web app, define a render mode at top of the component, as follows:
@* desired render mode define here *@
@rendermode InteractiveAuto
@using Syncfusion.Blazor.Navigations
<div class="control-container">
