Excerpt

Support Prerendering

How Prerendering Works

Prerendering is on by default for all interactive render modes. The server renders the component as static HTML and ships it to the browser immediately. Then the interactive runtime (Server/WebAssembly) loads and re-renders the component with full interactivity.

This means:

OnInitializedAsync runs twice — once during prerender (static), once when the interactive runtime attaches.
OnAfterRenderAsync is NOT called during prerender — only after the interactive render.
Internal navigation between interactive pages (interactive routing) skips prerendering — prerendering only happens on full page loads.

Step 1 — Read the Project's AGENTS.md
