## Using MatBlazor UI Components With the ABP Framework
Hi, in this step by step article, I will show you how to integrate [MatBlazor](https://www.matblazor.com/), a blazor UI components into ABP Framework-based applications.
*(A screenshot from the example application developed in this article)*
## Create the Project
> First thing is to create the project. ABP Framework offers startup templates to get into business faster.
In this article, I will create a new startup template with EF Core as a database provider and Blazor for UI framework. But if you already have a project with Blazor UI, you don't need to create a new startup template, you can directly implement the following steps to your existing project.
> If you already have a project with the Blazor UI, you can skip this section.
* Before starting the development, we will create a new solution named `MatBlazorSample` (or whatever you want). We will create a new startup template with EF Core as a database provider and Blazor for UI framework by using [ABP CLI](https://docs.abp.io/en/abp/latest/CLI):
````bash
abp new MatBlazorSample -u blazor
````
This will create new project inside of `aspnet-core`, so:
````bash
cd aspnet-core
````
and
````bash
dotnet restore
````
* Our project boilerplate will be ready after the download is finished. Then, we can open the solution in the Visual Studio (or any other IDE) and run the `MatBlazorSample.DbMigrator` to create the database and seed initial data (which creates the admin user, admin role, permissions etc.)
* After database and initial data created,
* Run the `MatBlazorSample.HttpApi.Host` to see our server side working and
* Run the `MatBlazorSample.Blazor` to see our UI working properly.

## Install MatBlazor
You can follow [this documentation](https://www.matblazor.com/) to install MatBlazor packages into your computer.
### Adding MatBlazor NuGet Packages
```bash
Install-Package MatBlazor
```
### Register MatBlazor Resources
1. Add the following line to the HEAD section of the `wwwroot/index.html` file within the `MatBlazorSample.Blazor` project:
```Razor
```
2. In the `MatBlazorSampleBlazorModule` class, call the `AddMatBlazor()` method from your project's `ConfigureServices()` method:
```csharp
public override void ConfigureServices(ServiceConfigurationContext context)
{
var environment = context.Services.GetSingletonInstance();
var builder = context.Services.GetSingletonInstance();
// ...
builder.Services.AddMatBlazor();
}
```
3. Register the **MatBlazorSample.Blazor** namespace in the `_Imports.razor` file:
```Razor
@using MatBlazor
```
## The Sample Application
We have created a sample application with [Table](https://www.matblazor.com/Table) example.
### The Source Code
You can download the source code from [here](https://github.com/abpframework/abp-samples/tree/master/MatBlazorSample).
The related files for this example are marked in the following screenshots.
## Conclusion
In this article, I've explained how to use [MatBlazor](https://www.matblazor.com/) components in your application. ABP Framework is designed so that it can work with any UI library/framework.
