Using Visual Studio 2019, I believe I have encountered a new bug. When I have an existing solution, full of various .NET projects of various types, adding a new Telerik Core Project does not actually create a Telerik project.
To be specific, using the menu Extensions/Telerik/Kendo UI for ASP.NET Core/Create menu item results in the "standard" visual studio template being used. Absolutely zero Kendo/Telerik logic gets added to the resulting project. If I use the new "magic search box", located in middle of top of VS 2019 window, and enter "add new telerik core mvc" the resulting listed items actually take you to the correct launch point. That is to say the resulting project does actually contain the needed references.
While both avenues result in a newly added project to your solution, the second option appears to be the only avenue to using the pre-defined Telerik Template.
In fairness to Telerik this might actually be a Visual Studio bug.

Thank you for taking the time to report this problem.
With Visual Studio 2019 the whole project creation experience was revamped and with this the logic for pre-selecting project templates also changed. We have worked closely with Microsoft to provide support for the Visual Studio 2019 Preview and continue to do so to provide the same experience as in previous Visual Studio versions.
With that said I can inform you that we are aware of the problem with the template selection and were able to resolve the problem for most of the products we have. The fix for UI for ASP.NET Core is still pending however, but we will do our best to provide a fix as soon as possible with one of the upcoming releases.
In case you have any other questions, please get back to us for further assistance.

And I thank you and your team for attempting to stay current on the ever moving target of Microsoft's. That challenge is all of ours to endure. Your team amazes me in attempting to solve problems ahead of release dates. I cannot say that of all vendors. Some take 6 months to release updates to address major Studio upgrades (certain reporting suite companies come to mind). Your team has always been day of release or earlier. Yes we sometimes have to use workarounds however we can continue coding with our new toys.
Thanks again.
