Visual Studio Integration Overview
The Progress® Telerik® UI for ASP.NET Core Visual Studio (VS) Extensions enhance the experience in developing MVC web applications with Telerik UI for ASP.NET Core.
As their major advantage, the VS extensions handle the creation of projects.
The Progress® Telerik® UI for ASP.NET Core VS Extensions are distributed with the Progress® Telerik® UI for ASP.NET Core installer. They support VS 2015 and, as of the R1 2017 release, VS 2017. Both VS versions handle ASP.NET MVC 6 applications.
Important
VS Express editions are not supported.
