I want to make a Blazor application that can make video calls
ADefWebserver The Hero sample might be overkill to follow, it might be easier to look at the quickstart here: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/communication-services/quickstarts/voice-video-calling/get-started-with-video-calling
You'll need to interop to:
- Create the CallClient and CallAgent
- Init the DeviceManager
- Call callAgent.startCall()
- Respond to any event on the all (participant, or stream added)
MicrosoftADefWebserver Our video calling for web SDK is only supported as a Javascript library at this time. You can still write your application in Blazor, but use the JSInterop support in Blazor for situations where you need to call, or move data, between Blazor and JS code.
There's more info here: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/blazor/call-javascript-from-dotnet?view=aspnetcore-5.0
- shawnhenry That is the BIG advantage / attraction / promise of Blazor - C# in the browser; no JS. When will the video calling for web SDK be available as a non-Javascript library?
jorhiro7 , shawnhenry - I am prepared to make JavaScript calls from Blazor (like I do in this article: https://blazorhelpwebsite.com/ViewBlogPost/49) however, I am unable to find the JavaScript methods I would call when looking at this example (https://github.com/Azure-Samples/communication-services-web-calling-hero)?
Thank You!

- Yes, that provides me what I need to get started. Thank You
