Hi I managed to get most of my crud experience working but i cant believe that in 2019 we still have the boring javascript confirmation dialog for delete is their any way of making this look better at all.

Hello David,

It is possible to customize the confirmation window in the Grid. You can use Kendo Window widget and a custom template that matches the specific requirements you have. We have a how-to article that illustrates how such functionality can be implemented. Check it out below:
