Blazor Interop Generation Tool Release
This article is the Release post of my new Blazor Interop Generation Tool! Here I will do a quick overview of the tool and how to use it.
Overview
This tool allows for the easy creation of Blazor TypeScript Interop Generated projects, I packaged up my own library into an convince tool with ease of use features built in. By giving the CLI command a few flags you can generate a project with just a single command, no external files necessary.
Install
Below you can install the, it was built in .NET Core 5.0, so having the SDK installed is required.
dotnet tool install -g EventHorizon.Blazor.TypeScript.Interop.Tool
