Blazor has revolutionized .NET web development, enabling rich, interactive UIs with C# both on the server and client-side (WebAssembly). As you build sophisticated Blazor applications, the need to display documents – reports, user uploads, reference materials – directly within the UI often arises. Relying on download links disrupts the fluid, single-page application feel that Blazor excels at.
That’s where Doconut comes in — a blazing-fast, fully managed document viewer built specifically for .NET developers. Whether you’re using Blazor Server or WebAssembly, Doconut keeps your users engaged and documents securely inside your app.
