Adding the Dialog Component

Explore how to add a customizable Dialog component to your Blazor WebAssembly app. Learn to place the component in the Shared folder, apply isolated CSS styles for modal behavior, and test its functionality by adding it to the Home page.

  1. Right-click the Shared folder and select “Add, Razor Component” from the menu.
  2. Name the new component Dialog.
  3. Click the “Add” button.
  4. Replace the markup with the following markup:

{
<div class="dialog-container">
<div class="dialog">
<div class="dialog-title">Title</div>
<div class="dialog-body">Body</div>
<div class="dialog-buttons">
<button class="btn btn-dark mr-2" >
OK
</button>
<button class="btn btn-danger">
Cancel
</button>
</div>
</div>
</div>
}
@code {
[Parameter] public bool Show { get; set; }
}
