Why are View Components preferred over Partial Views in advanced architectures?

Expert .NET Core
Quick Answer ViewComponents have InvokeAsync() with full DI support รขโ‚ฌโ€ they can query databases, consume services, run async logic. Partial Views just render a template with a passed model รขโ‚ฌโ€ no independent logic. ViewComponents are independently testable, reusable across different pages, and encapsulate their own data requirements. Use them for notification counts, sidebar widgets, shopping carts.

Answer

View Components include logic, support DI, run independently of controllers, and provide isolated UI modules. They are ideal for dynamic widgets, reusable dashboard blocks, and modular UI design.
