Can Blazor do something WPF/Winform can offline? RRS feed

  • Question

  • User1052024640 posted

    Recently days I have an amazing idea that using Blazor to do something that WPF/Winform does.

    For example, converting a pdf file to an image file by GDI+ interface. I wanna do this offline without back-end but only by Blazor.

    I am not sure if the Blazor can but just have this strange idea. 

    Would you please tell me if it can? Thank you.

    OK, that means Blazor can reference the GDI+ interface yet.

    Not if it's running on WebAssembly in the browser.

    Blazor on WebAssembly will execute within the same browser security restrictions as Javascript.

    Hi,

    Mikes is correct.

    But everything is possible in <g class="gr_ gr_54 gr-alert gr_gramm gr_inline_cards gr_run_anim Style multiReplace" id="54" data-gr-id="54">Software :</g> https://maherjendoubi.io/blazor-electron/

    Best regards,

    Maybe there is something different. I don't want to make a cross-platform software such as electron. 

    As we know, there are so many tools website online, for example to converting pdf to jpg(smallpdf.com).

    I wanna achieve the application of this, use the Blazor but not back-end.

    Aha, I know it is a crazy idea.
