+### New JS initializers for Blazor Web Apps
+
+For Blazor Server, Blazor WebAssembly, and Blazor Hybrid apps:
+
+* `beforeWebStart` is used for tasks such as customizing the loading process, logging level, and other options.
+* `afterWebStarted` is used for tasks such as registering Blazor event listeners and custom event types.
+
+The preceding legacy JS initializers aren't invoked by default in a Blazor Web App. For Blazor Web Apps, a new set of JS initializers are used: `beforeWebStart`, `afterWebStarted`, `beforeServerStart`, `afterServerStarted`, `beforeWebAssemblyStart`, and `afterWebAssemblyStarted`.

+### New article on static rendering with enhanced navigation for JS interop
+
+Some apps depend on JS interop to perform initialization tasks that are specific to each page. When using Blazor's enhanced navigation feature with statically-rendered pages that perform JS interop initialization tasks, page-specific JS may not be executed again as expected each time an enhanced page navigation occurs. A new article explains how to address this scenario in Blazor Web Apps:

 ### Streaming rendering
 
 You can now stream content updates on the response stream when using static server rendering with Blazor. Streaming rendering can improve the user experience for pages that perform long-running asynchronous tasks in order to fully render by rendering content as soon as it's available.
