Add the project from the Visual Nuget Package Manager
Manually edit the .csproj file and add a package reference <PackageReference Include="Radzen.Blazor" Version="*" />

Open the _Imports.razor file of your Blazor application and add these two lines:

@using Radzen
@using Radzen.Blazor

Radzen Blazor components come with five free themes: Material, Standard, Default, Dark, Software and Humanistic.

Pick a theme. The online demos allow you to preview the available options via the theme dropdown located in the header. The Material theme is currently selected by default.
Include the theme CSS file in your Blazor application. Open Pages\_Layout.cshtml (Blazor Server .NET 6), Pages\_Host.cshtml (Blazor Server .NET 7) or wwwroot/index.html (Blazor WebAssembly) and include the a theme CSS file by adding this snippet
```
<link rel="stylesheet" href="_content/Radzen.Blazor/css/material-base.css">
```

To include a different theme (i.e. Standard) just change the name of the CSS file:

<link rel="stylesheet" href="_content/Radzen.Blazor/css/standard-base.css">

Include the JS

Open Pages\_Layout.cshtml (Blazor Server .NET 6), Pages\_Host.cshtml (Blazor Server .NET 7) or wwwroot/index.html (Blazor WebAssembly) and include this snippet:
