What are Tag Helper Scopes and how do they improve structure?

Junior .NET Core
Quick Answer Tag Helper scope is controlled by @addTagHelper and @removeTagHelper directives in _ViewImports.cshtml. You can add tag helpers globally (for the whole app) or restrict them to specific namespaces and assemblies. This prevents conflicts when two tag helpers process the same HTML element and lets teams control which tag helpers are available in which views.

Answer

Tag Helpers operate within the HTML element tree and can apply behavior to all nested content.

Scoped helpers like <environment> wrap child elements to conditionally render sets of tags based on environment, reducing duplication and improving structure.

They help apply consistent behavior (e.g., script loading, validation attributes) across entire sections of the UI.
