Using LiveCharts2 as a WASM control within a Blazor Server page

[hansmbakker]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I have a Blazor Server app, and would like to use LiveCharts2.

I know it is not possible to use LiveCharts2 directly in server-side rendering, apart from just generating image files.

I believe normally Blazor could use different rendering techniques for different parts of the page. The Blazor documentation shows that it is possible to enable WASM to be used within a Blazor Server project.

However, LiveCharts2 / SkiaSharpView does not seem to work that way. I keep getting errors like

System.NotSupportedException: Cannot create a component of type 'MyProject.Components.TimelineChart' because its render mode 'Microsoft.AspNetCore.Components.Web.InteractiveWebAssemblyRenderMode' is not supported by interactive server-side rendering.

Describe the solution you'd like
Confirmation whether or not it is possible to use LiveCharts2 as a WASM component within a Blazor Server page, e.g. using different render modes.

• If it is possible, could you please give some details on how to do that?
• If it is not yet possible, could you please take this as a feature request?
• If it is not technically possible at all, it's also good to know.

Describe alternatives you've considered

• Moving entire app to WASM rendering model
• Using a different charting library
