blazor-wasm-maui-winforms-wpf-template VS TheLastTime

Next I decided to make a Windows desktop version using WebView. I also made a template https://github.com/Jinjinov/blazor-wasm-maui-winforms-wpf-template that is now somewhat obsolete. The biggest problem is loading the data from IndexedDB before the app starts. Blazor WASM allows you to use JsInterop right from the moment you register your services in dependency injection, so you can access IndexedDB immediately, load the user settings and then start the app. WebView doesn't allow you to use JsInterop before Blazor is initialized. This means that if the user chooses a dark UI theme and you save that choice in IndexedDB, the app will load with the default light UI theme, you will read the IndexedDB on the first render and then apply the dark UI theme. The app will flicker for a second.

I made a template for a cross platform Blazor project: https://github.com/Jinjinov/blazor-wasm-maui-winforms-wpf-template But it is a bit outdated now.

Blazor WASM was the first, original version. I wanted an app that can work offline, so I decided to save user data in IndexedDB. My first choice for an IndexedDB NuGet was https://github.com/Reshiru/Blazor.IndexedDB.Framework because it was recommended by Steve Sanderson in https://blog.stevensanderson.com/2019/08/03/blazor-indexeddb/ - and it was the worst mistake in the whole project. The NuGet loads all the data from IndexedDB into memory every time you open a connection. That made the app unusably slow after one year of use. I made a few improvements in my own version https://github.com/Jinjinov/IndexedDB.Blazor but I never solved the loading problem. I decided to rewrite the whole project from scratch, using the much better IndexedDB NuGet https://github.com/amuste/DnetIndexedDb . The original project is available at https://github.com/Jinjinov/TheLastTime and as a PWA https://old.ididit.today/ as a lesson on what mistakes to avoid.

Repo: https://github.com/Jinjinov/TheLastTime - use the WebView.sln

It already is: https://github.com/Jinjinov/TheLastTime/blob/main/TheLastTime/wwwroot/manifest.json#L5

I am making a Blazor SPA https://github.com/Jinjinov/TheLastTime and for now I am using IndexedDB, but it has no active development.

There are many habit tracker apps out there, but few of them are open source and none were exactly what I was looking for, so I made my own: https://github.com/Jinjinov/TheLastTime

I made a few SPA in the past with Vue.js but then I got fascinated with Blazor. I made a habit tracker app https://github.com/Jinjinov/TheLastTime with Blazor, Blazorise and IndexedDB.
