📦 Version 9.0.0 – Initial Release
Release Date: 28-April-2025
🎉 Overview
We are excited to announce the first public release of the BlazorForKids framework! This version marks the beginning of a framework tailored to help developers of all ages and experience levels build powerful, maintainable, and modern Blazor applications — especially for internal company tools and intranet systems.
🔢 Versioning Strategy
BlazorForKids follows a versioning convention where the major version number always matches the supported .NET runtime version. For example, this first release is v9.0.0 because it is built on and fully compatible with .NET 9.
This approach is designed to make it easy for you to identify which .NET version is used under the hood — just by looking at the version number of the framework.
- BlazorForKids v9.x.x → targets .NET 9
- BlazorForKids v10.x.x → will target .NET 10 (future release)
