{% tabs %} {% highlight c# tabtitle=".NET CLI" %}

dotnet --version

{% endhighlight %} {% endtabs %}

{% tabs %} {% highlight c# tabtitle=".NET CLI" %}

dotnet new blazor -o BlazorApp -int Server cd BlazorApp

{% endhighlight %} {% endtabs %}

{% endtabcontent %}

{% endtabcontents %}

N> Configure the appropriate Interactive render mode and Interactivity location while creating a Blazor Server App. For detailed information, refer to the interactive render mode documentation.

Install required Blazor packages

Install the following NuGet packages in your project:

You can install these packages using different methods as shown below:

{% tabcontents %}

{% tabcontent Visual Studio %}

  1. In Visual Studio Navigate to:

    Tools → NuGet Package Manager → Manage NuGet Packages for Solution

  2. Search for the required packages.

  3. Select the package and click Install.

{% endtabcontent %}

{% tabcontent Visual Studio (Package Manager Console) %}

  1. In Visual Studio Navigate to:

    Tools → NuGet Package Manager → Package Manager Console

  2. Run the following commands:

{% tabs %} {% highlight C# tabtitle="Install Packages" %}

Install-Package Syncfusion.Blazor.RichTextEditor -Version {{ site.releaseversion }} Install-Package Syncfusion.Blazor.Themes -Version {{ site.releaseversion }}

{% endhighlight %} {% endtabs %}

{% endtabcontent %}

{% tabcontent Visual Studio Code / .NET CLI %}

  1. Open your project.
  2. Open the terminal:
    • In Visual Studio Code: use the integrated terminal (Ctrl + `)
    • Or use any system terminal for CLI
  3. Run the following commands:

{% tabs %} {% highlight C# tabtitle="Install Packages" %}

dotnet add package Syncfusion.Blazor.RichTextEditor --version {{ site.releaseversion }} dotnet add package Syncfusion.Blazor.Themes --version {{ site.releaseversion }}

{% endhighlight %} {% endtabs %}

{% endtabcontent %}

{% endtabcontents %}

N> 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.RichTextEditor namespaces.

{% tabs %} {% highlight C# tabtitle="~/_Imports.razor" %}

@using Syncfusion.Blazor @using Syncfusion.Blazor.RichTextEditor

{% endhighlight %} {% endtabs %}

Register Blazor service

Register the Blazor service in the Program.cs file of your Blazor Server App.

{% tabs %} {% highlight C# tabtitle="Program.cs" %}

.... using Syncfusion.Blazor; .... builder.Services.AddSyncfusionBlazor(); ....

{% endhighlight %} {% endtabs %}

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 ~/Components/App.razor 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>

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

Add Blazor Markdown Editor component

Add the Blazor Markdown Editor component in the ~/Components/Pages/Home.razor file. If the interactivity location is set to Per page/component, define a render mode at the top of the ~Pages/Home.razor file.

N> If the Interactivity Location is set to Global, the render mode is automatically configured in the App.razor file by default.

{% tabs %} {% highlight razor tabtitle="Home.razor" %}

@* desired render mode define here *@ @rendermode InteractiveServer

@using Syncfusion.Blazor.RichTextEditor

@code { private string MarkdownValue { get; set; } = @"Rich Text Editor formats text instantly using toolbar actions, whereas Markdown uses syntax to apply formatting. Markdown editing is supported when editorMode is set to markdown, allowing formatting via toolbar or keyboard. Custom Markdown syntax can also be added. This sample uses the Marked library to convert Markdown to HTML. Sample link.";

}

{% endhighlight %} {% endtabs %}

To launch the application, press Ctrl+F5 in Visual Studio, run dotnet run from the CLI or integrated terminal in VS Code, or use the Run command in your preferred IDE to render the Blazor Markdown Editor component in the default web browser.
