Detailed information to develop & debug & deploy Evergine for the web

Build

Use VS2022 or VSCode/Terminal. You can build and test only the client project (web), the server is only needed for publishing with compression (see below).

dotnet build -c [Debug|Release] ./sample.web/sample.web.[Server.]csproj

Run

From VS2022 you can run the profile sample.web[.Server]. There is also an IIS Express profile for each cliente and server projects, but it is usually slower.

Additionally you can publish the app

dotnet publish -c [Debug|Release] ./sample.web/sample.web.csproj

and run the app by populating the folder ./sample.web/bin/[Debug|Release]/net6.0/publish/wwwroot. In this second case we do recommend to use VSCode Live Server, instead of Fenix, as the second has known issues with Web Assembly.

Debug

Debug is now possible from VS2022 by running the application in debug mode only on Chrome browser.

Publish with Compression

To publish the application with automatic compression (Brotli & GZip), the AspNetCore server is needed. Use VS2022 or from Terminal:

dotnet publish -c Release -r win-x86 --self-contained ./sample.web.Server/sample.web.Server.csproj

If done from terminal, you can publish the files in sample.web.Server/bin/Release/net6.0/win-x86/publish to an AspNetCore server, from VSCode or manually.
