• .NET 8 - you can find the download here

✨ Create an app using the CLI

After you have installed the required dependencies, the easiest way to get a project up an running is by using the BlazeKit CLI.

# Install the BlazeKit CLI
dotnet tool install --global BlazeKit.CLI

Now simply create your first BlazeKit project by running the following command

bkit new NextUnicorn

You will be prompted to choose one of the Blazor Hosting Models such as Blazor WebAssembly or Blazor WebApp. Afterwards a BlazeKit app will be created with the choosen hosting model. Next cd into your project folder and start .NET's local development server using the dotnet watch command

cd NextUnicorn
dotnet watch

And here it is, your first BalzeKit project 🎉
