Install Syncfusion® Blazor packages

Install Syncfusion.Blazor.Ribbon and Syncfusion.Blazor.Themes NuGet packages in your project using the NuGet Package Manager in Visual Studio (Tools → NuGet Package Manager → Manage NuGet Packages for Solution), or the integrated terminal in Visual Studio Code (dotnet add package), or the .NET CLI.

Alternatively, run the following commands in the Package Manager Console to achieve the same.

Install-Package Syncfusion.Blazor.Ribbon -Version 33.2.3
Install-Package Syncfusion.Blazor.Themes -Version 33.2.3

NOTE

All Syncfusion Blazor packages are available on nuget.org. See the NuGet packages topic for details.

Add import namespaces

After the packages are installed, open the ~/_Imports.razor file and import the Syncfusion.Blazor and Syncfusion.Blazor.Ribbon namespaces.

@using Syncfusion.Blazor
@using Syncfusion.Blazor.Ribbon

Register Syncfusion® Blazor service

Register the Syncfusion® Blazor service in the Program.cs file of your Blazor WebAssembly 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 and script references in the ~/index.html file.

<link href="_content/Syncfusion.Blazor.Themes/fluent2.css" rel="stylesheet" />
....
<script src="_content/Syncfusion.Blazor.Core/scripts/syncfusion-blazor.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

NOTE

Check out the Blazor Themes topic to discover various methods (Static Web Assets, CDN, and CRG) for referencing themes in the Blazor application. Also, check out the Adding Script Reference topic to learn different approaches for adding script references in the Blazor application.

Add Syncfusion® Blazor Ribbon component

Add the Syncfusion® Blazor Ribbon component in the ~/Pages/Index.razor file.

Adding ribbon tab

In Ribbon component, options are organized into tabs for easy access. You can use the RibbonTabs tag directive to group all the tabs and RibbonTab tag directive to define each ribbon tab as shown below:

<SfRibbon>
    <RibbonTabs>
        <RibbonTab HeaderText="Home"></RibbonTab>
    </RibbonTabs>
</SfRibbon>

Adding ribbon group

To define a ribbon group under each tab, you can use the RibbonGroups tag directive like below. The Orientation property of ribbon group defines whether the collection of items inside the group will be rendered column-wise or row-wise.

<SfRibbon>
    <RibbonTabs>
        <RibbonTab HeaderText="Home">
            <RibbonGroups>
                <RibbonGroup HeaderText="Clipboard" Orientation="Orientation.Row"></RibbonGroup>
            </RibbonGroups>
        </RibbonTab>
    </RibbonTabs>
</SfRibbon>

Adding ribbon item

You can use the RibbonCollection tag directive to define each ribbon collection that contains one or more items. To define each ribbon item, you can use the RibbonItem tag directive with the Type property to specify the type of item to be rendered, using the RibbonItemType such as Button, a DropDown, a ComboBox, and more.

@using Syncfusion.Blazor.Ribbon;
@using Syncfusion.Blazor.SplitButtons;

<SfRibbon>
    <RibbonTabs>
        <RibbonTab HeaderText="Home">
            <RibbonGroups>
                <RibbonGroup HeaderText="Clipboard">
                    <RibbonCollections>
                        <RibbonCollection>
                            <RibbonItems>
                                <RibbonItem Type=RibbonItemType.SplitButton Disabled=true>
                                    <RibbonSplitButtonSettings Content="Paste" IconCss="e-icons e-paste" Items="@formatItems"></RibbonSplitButtonSettings>
                                </RibbonItem>
                            </RibbonItems>
                        </RibbonCollection>
                        <RibbonCollection>
                            <RibbonItems>
                                <RibbonItem Type=RibbonItemType.Button>
                                    <RibbonButtonSettings Content="Cut" IconCss="e-icons e-cut" ></RibbonButtonSettings>
                                </RibbonItem>
                                <RibbonItem Type=RibbonItemType.Button>
                                    <RibbonButtonSettings Content="Copy" IconCss="e-icons e-copy"></RibbonButtonSettings>
                                </RibbonItem>
                                <RibbonItem Type=RibbonItemType.Button>
                                    <RibbonButtonSettings Content="Format Painter" IconCss="e-icons e-format-painter"></RibbonButtonSettings>
                                </RibbonItem>
                            </RibbonItems>
                        </RibbonCollection>
                    </RibbonCollections>
                </RibbonGroup>
            </RibbonGroups>
        </RibbonTab>
    </RibbonTabs>
</SfRibbon>

    List<DropDownMenuItem> formatItems = new List<DropDownMenuItem>()
    {
        new DropDownMenuItem{ Text = "Keep Source Format" },
