You can create a Blazor WebAssembly App using Visual Studio Code via Microsoft Templates or the Syncfusion^® Blazor Extension.

Alternatively, you can create a WebAssembly application using the following command in the terminal(Ctrl+`).

Blazor WASM App
dotnet new blazorwasm -o BlazorApp
cd BlazorApp

Install Syncfusion^® Blazor TreeMap NuGet in the App

Press Ctrl+` to open the integrated terminal in Visual Studio Code.
Ensure you’re in the project root directory where your .csproj file is located.
Run the following command to install a Syncfusion.Blazor.TreeMap and Syncfusion.Blazor.Themes NuGet package and ensure all dependencies are installed.

Package Manager
dotnet add package Syncfusion.Blazor.TreeMap -v 29.1.33
dotnet restore

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.TreeMap namespace.

~/_Imports.razor

@using Syncfusion.Blazor
@using Syncfusion.Blazor.TreeMap

Now, register the Syncfusion^® Blazor Service in the ~/Program.cs file of your Blazor WebAssembly App.

~/Program.cs
using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Components.Web;
using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Components.WebAssembly.Hosting;
using Syncfusion.Blazor;

var builder = WebAssemblyHostBuilder.CreateDefault(args);
builder.RootComponents.Add<App>("#app");
builder.RootComponents.Add<HeadOutlet>("head::after");

builder.Services.AddScoped(sp => new HttpClient { BaseAddress = new Uri(builder.HostEnvironment.BaseAddress) });

builder.Services.AddSyncfusionBlazor();
await builder.Build().RunAsync();
....

Add script resources

The script can be accessed from NuGet through Static Web Assets. Include the script reference in the <head> section of the ~/index.html file.

<head>
    ....
    <script src="_content/Syncfusion.Blazor.Core/scripts/syncfusion-blazor.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
</head>

NOTE

Check out the Adding Script Reference topic to learn different approaches for adding script references in your Blazor application.

Add Blazor TreeMap component

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

You can use the DataSource property to load the car sales details in the TreeMap component. Specify a field name from the data source in the WeightValuePath property to calculate the TreeMap item size.

RAZOR
<SfTreeMap DataSource="GrowthReport"
            WeightValuePath="GDP"
            TValue="Country">
</SfTreeMap>

@code {
    public class Country
    {
        public string Name { get; set; }
        public double GDP { get; set; }
    }
    public List<Country> GrowthReport = new List<Country> {
        new Country  {Name="United States", GDP=17946 },
        new Country  {Name="China", GDP=10866 },
        new Country  {Name="Japan", GDP=4123 },
        new Country  {Name="Germany", GDP=3355 },
        new Country  {Name="United Kingdom", GDP=2848 },
        new Country  {Name="France", GDP=2421 },
        new Country  {Name="India", GDP=2073 },
        new Country  {Name="Italy", GDP=1814 },
        new Country  {Name="Brazil", GDP=1774 },
        new Country  {Name="Canada", GDP=1550 }
    };
}

Press Ctrl+F5 (Windows) or ⌘+F5 (macOS) to launch the application. This will render the Syncfusion^® Blazor TreeMap component in your default web browser.

Adding labels in Blazor TreeMap items

Add label text to the leaf items in the TreeMap component by setting the field name from data source in the LabelPath property in the TreeMapLeafItemSettings, and it provides information to the user about the leaf items.

RAZOR
<SfTreeMap DataSource="GrowthReport"
            WeightValuePath="GDP"
            TValue="Country">
    <TreeMapLeafItemSettings LabelPath="Name" Fill="lightgray"></TreeMapLeafItemSettings>
</SfTreeMap>

NOTE

Refer to the code block to know about the property value of the GrowthReport.

Adding title to Blazor TreeMap

Add a title using the Text property in the TreeMapTitleSettings to provide quick information to the user about the items rendered in the TreeMap.

RAZOR
<SfTreeMap DataSource="GrowthReport"
            WeightValuePath="GDP"
            TValue="Country">
    <TreeMapTitleSettings Text="Top 10 countries by GDP Nominal - 2015"></TreeMapTitleSettings>
    <TreeMapLeafItemSettings LabelPath="Name" Fill="lightgray"></TreeMapLeafItemSettings>
</SfTreeMap>

NOTE

Refer to the code block to know the property value of the GrowthReport.

NOTE

Apply color mapping

The color mapping supports customization of item colors based on the underlying value received from the bound data source. Specify the field name from which the values have to be compared for the items in the RangeColorValuePath property in SfTreeMap. Also, specify range value and color in the TreeMapLeafColorMapping. Here, in this example, “Orange” is specified for the range “0 - 3000” and “Green” is specified for the range “3000 - 20000”.

RAZOR
<SfTreeMap DataSource="GrowthReport"
            WeightValuePath="GDP"
            TValue="Country"
            RangeColorValuePath="GDP">
    <TreeMapTitleSettings Text="Top 10 countries by GDP Nominal - 2015"></TreeMapTitleSettings>
    <TreeMapLeafItemSettings LabelPath="Name" Fill="lightgray">
        <TreeMapLeafColorMappings>
            <TreeMapLeafColorMapping StartRange="0" EndRange="3000" Color="@(new string[] { "Orange" })"></TreeMapLeafColorMapping>
            <TreeMapLeafColorMapping StartRange="3000" EndRange="20000" Color="@(new string[] { "Green" })"></TreeMapLeafColorMapping>
        </TreeMapLeafColorMappings>
    </TreeMapLeafItemSettings>
</SfTreeMap>

NOTE

Refer to the code block to know about the property value of the GrowthReport.

Enable legend

Legend items are used to denote the color mapping categories and show the legend for the TreeMap by setting the Visible property to true in the TreeMapLegendSettings.

RAZOR
<SfTreeMap DataSource="GrowthReport"
            WeightValuePath="GDP"
            TValue="Country"
            RangeColorValuePath="GDP">
    <TreeMapTitleSettings Text="Top 10 countries by GDP Nominal - 2015"></TreeMapTitleSettings>
    <TreeMapLeafItemSettings LabelPath="Name" Fill="lightgray">
        <TreeMapLeafColorMappings>
            <TreeMapLeafColorMapping StartRange="0" EndRange="3000" Color="@(new string[] { "Orange" })"></TreeMapLeafColorMapping>
            <TreeMapLeafColorMapping StartRange="3000" EndRange="20000" Color="@(new string[] { "Green" })"></TreeMapLeafColorMapping>
        </TreeMapLeafColorMappings>
    </TreeMapLeafItemSettings>
    <TreeMapLegendSettings Visible="true"></TreeMapLegendSettings>
</SfTreeMap>

NOTE

Refer to the code block to know about the property value of the GrowthReport.

When space constraints prevents from displaying information using data labels, the tooltip comes in handy. The tooltip can be enabled by setting the Visible property to true in the TreeMapTooltipSettings.

RAZOR
<SfTreeMap DataSource="GrowthReport"
            WeightValuePath="GDP"
            TValue="Country"
            RangeColorValuePath="GDP">
    <TreeMapTitleSettings Text="Top 10 countries by GDP Nominal - 2015"></TreeMapTitleSettings>
    <TreeMapLeafItemSettings LabelPath="Name" Fill="lightgray">
        <TreeMapLeafColorMappings>
            <TreeMapLeafColorMapping StartRange="0" EndRange="3000" Color="@(new string[] { "Orange" })"></TreeMapLeafColorMapping>
            <TreeMapLeafColorMapping StartRange="3000" EndRange="20000" Color="@(new string[] { "Green" })"></TreeMapLeafColorMapping>
        </TreeMapLeafColorMappings>
    </TreeMapLeafItemSettings>
    <TreeMapLegendSettings Visible="true"></TreeMapLegendSettings>
    <TreeMapTooltipSettings Visible="true"></TreeMapTooltipSettings>
</SfTreeMap>

NOTE

Refer to the code block to know about the property value of the GrowthReport.
