# Glossary

Blazor/MAUI UI terminology. For core framework terms see [`../../AyCode.Core/docs/GLOSSARY.md`](../../AyCode.Core/docs/GLOSSARY.md).

## UI Components

| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| **DxGrid** | DevExpress Blazor data grid. Used with `AcSignalRDataSource` for real-time SignalR data. |

## Architecture

| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| **Blazor Hybrid** | MAUI app hosting Blazor components via WebView. Shares UI code between web and native. |
| **DLL Reference** | AyCode.Core projects are referenced as DLLs (not ProjectReference). This is intentional — separates solution build graphs. |
