I'm the creator and maintainer of Blazorise. This was supposed to be a small release, but Reporting needed several things we didn't have, so we ended up building DockLayout, PropertyGrid, ContextMenu, and PDF generation as standalone components. We also rebuilt DatePicker and TimePicker in Blazor/C# and removed the Flatpickr dependency. Happy to answer any technical questions.

Essentially, it works the same as Blazor Server. Or am I wrong?

I also use Fork and find it the fastest and easiest git GUI. And I tried so many GUIs in the past. One thing that works well in Fork is submodules, which are almost non-existent in other GUIs. And the UI is really fast to respond.

On a side note, regarding the licensing. As a software vendor selling to enterprises, I always struggle with finding this kind of information. Would you be willing to briefly explain how large enterprises usually buy software or subscriptions? It would help me/us so much.

Thank you. Glad you like it.

I made a Blazor component library for one of my personal projects that failed, but the component library lived on as an open-source project called Blazorise [1].

In late 2019, I got a well-paid job in a large local company because of the project reference. Unfortunately, COVID happened, and I lost that same job after a few months. So again, because of Blazorise, I got several other gigs as a freelancer.

But after a while, it was hard to do all the work on the projects and do freelance jobs at the same time. Not to mention that family time was also very limited.

So I decided to commercially license Blazorise to companies, and keep it free for individuals. Hopefully, the decision paid off. Today I run a small company and continue to work on Blazorise full time. We're still fully bootstraped without any external funds.

I did something similar with Blazorise, a personal project of mine, https://blazorise.com/. It started as a hobby project. After some time it grew too large that it took most of my time, not to mention the time I could spend with my wife and son. Things changed during the Covid when I was laid off. Then I started freelancing for a while, and last year I finally took a big step and went full-time with Blazorise. Switched to dual licensing, where larger enterprises must purchase a commercial license. It is working, and hopefully, it will continue to work. Or otherwise, my wife will rage on me :/

Blazorise is a component library built on top of Blazor. Currently it supports CSS frameworks like Bootstrap, Bulma and Material.
