This document is aimed to run your Metronic based Blazor project in just 5 minutes.
It's assumed that you already purchased Metronic
and downloaded from Metronic Downloads.
Pre Requirements
Here's required technology and languages to get started:
The Starter Kit includes only the theme source code(sass, js, media, fonts and icons) from the HTML version, build tools(Gulp, Webpack),
layout views and general pages(index, authentication, error) integration.
To use any feature shown in the HTML version just copy & paste the HTML code and include required assets(css, js) using the Theme Api.
Build assets
Before running the application we need to build theme assets:
Start a command prompt window or terminal and change directory to Starterkit/_keenthemes/tools
cd Starterkit/_keenthemes/tools
Install dependencies with either one, yarn or npm:
yarn install
You can use either one.
npm install
This command will fetch all dependencies listed in Starterkit/_keenthemes/tools/package.json and place them into _keenthemes/tools/node_modules folder.
You can use Gulp
or Webpack commands to bundle theme assets.
The below command will compile all the assets(sass, js, media) to starterkit/assets folder:
For gulp use command:
gulp
For webpack use command:
npm run build
Note on the package.json file. This step is very important for Webpack in Metronic template. The default package.json works for Gulp. To make it work for Webpack, you have to modify tools/package.json and remove "type": "module".
Otherwise, it will cause compilation error when running the build command.
Run application
To run application navigate your prompt to Starterkit folder and run command dotnet watch, this command will listen for changes and hot reload them.
Keep your prompt running by default application is served on http://localhost:5170.
