In today’s fast-paced digital environment, efficient document management is vital across industries such as finance, healthcare, legal, and education. Traditional paper handling methods are not only slow but also susceptible to errors and inefficiencies. Document PDF scanner apps offer a modern solution by streamlining workflows and significantly boosting productivity. This...

Last week, we developed a desktop document scanner application using .NET MAUI and the Dynamic Web TWAIN REST API. We encountered an issue where the app’s UI, constructed with MAUI controls, behaved inconsistently on Windows and macOS. For instance, the Picker control functioned well on Windows but not on macOS....

If you ever searched for “image converter” or “PDF converter” on Google, you might have noticed most of the tools are server-side applications, which means you must upload your files to the server for further processing. This may cause an information leak and is not ideal for users who are...

Document detection and rectification are crucial in document management, with widespread applications across various industries, including banking, insurance, and healthcare. In a previous project, we developed a Blazor document rectification app using both C# and JavaScript, which can be found here: https://github.com/yushulx/dotnet-blazor-document-rectification. To further streamline the development process using only...

We have written a tutorial demonstrating how to build a web-based passport MRZ scanner app using .NET Blazor WebAssembly. This tutorial requires developers to use both C# and JavaScript. To streamline the development process and allow .NET developers to focus exclusively on C#, we plan to create a Razor class...

In our previous article, we mentioned how to create a Web Barcode Scanner using RazorBarcodeLibrary. The library is built on top of the Dynamsoft JavaScript Barcode SDK, which encapsulates the camera access and barcode reading logic in JavaScript. In fact, Dynamsoft also provides an independent JavaScript camera library, named Dynamsoft...

In our last article, we discussed how to create a Razor Class Library and implement related C# interfaces for a JavaScript Barcode Reader. Today, we will further enhance the library by integrating JavaScript Barcode Scanner interfaces. This will enable Blazor developers to easily create applications for both barcode reading and...

Previously, we published a GitHub repository named blazor-barcode-qrcode-reader-scanner, showcasing the development of a web barcode reader using Blazor WebAssembly. In this project, C# accounted for only 2.0% of the entire codebase, mainly tasked with invoking JavaScript code. The core functionality was primarily implemented in JavaScript. With an aim to enhance...

Last week, we developed a RESTful service using .NET C# and Twain.Wia.Sane.Scanner library to scan documents from TWAIN, WIA, SANE, and eSCL scanners. This week, we will repurpose the C# code to construct a Blazor WebAssembly application that digitizes documents directly from a web browser, all without the need for...

Web-based document management systems are evolving rapidly, and a critical feature often in demand is document rectification. The Dynamsoft Document Normalizer SDK offers a suite of user-friendly JavaScript APIs for document detection and rectification in web browsers. This article will guide you through the process of building a web-based document...

If you are a .NET developer, you might consider using Blazor for web development, as it allows you to write web apps using C# and HTML. A significant advantage of Blazor is its ability to reuse existing .NET libraries and open-source C# code. However, using Blazor doesn’t mean you can...

A Razor class library project is essentially a project that includes Razor components and other related files that can be shared and distributed as a NuGet package. To develop a document scanning application that works for both desktop and web, we can package Dynamic Web TWAIN SDK into a Razor...

.NET Multi-platform App UI (MAUI) is a cross-platform UI framework for building native and modern applications in C#. It allows developers to create a single codebase for multiple platforms. Blazor is a web UI framework for building interactive client-side web applications with .NET. It allows developers to write C# code...

Since .NET 6 Preview 3, it is possible to host Blazor web applications in a WinForms/WPF app using the BlazorWebView control. Behind BlazorWebView is WebView2, which uses Microsoft Edge as the rendering engine to display the web content in native apps. Developers can now adopt a hybrid app approach, utilizing...

Blazor is a framework for building interactive client-side web UI with .NET1. Users can create interactive UIs in C# instead of JavaScript. Server-side and client-side app logic can both be written in .NET. In the previous article, we’ve created a barcode reader with Blazor using Dynamsoft Barcode Reader. In this...

Blazor is a web framework developed by Microsoft. It enables developers to create web apps using C# and HTML. However, calling existing JavaScript API is inevitable while developing a Blazor project. This article will help web developers who want to build web barcode and QR code reader apps using Blazor...
