Run in the browser with WebAssembly

Running in the Browser

It is currently very early days and not ready for production, however if you want to test this exciting new feature please take the following steps.

1. Install wasm-tools workload tools. See dotnet documentation.

2. Install or update the dotnet templates to the latest version (0.10.11 or above).

dotnet new -i avalonia.templates

3. Create a new directory for the project.

mkdir WebTest
cd WebTest

4. Generate a new project that supports running in the browser.

dotnet new avalonia.xplat

5. In order to run simply do:

cd WebTest.Web
dotnet run

Troubleshooting

If you have not performed the step to install wasm-tools, you will encounter errors when running the app in your browser later (e.g. System.DllNotFoundException: libSkiaSharp) and you will need to rebuild again before the app will run.
