Can't create .NET 5 Telerik Application

[Tim]

I'm trying to create a Telerik ASP .NET Core MVC Application (Grid Razor Pages) that uses .NET 5. However, there's not an option for .NET 5. Is this not possible?

Thanks,

Tim

Hi Tim,

We are currently adding .NET 5 to our Visual Studio Extension template projects and they are expected to be available with R1 2020 release.

It is possible to upgrade a 3.1 template project to 5.0 with two changes as follows:

- Create a 3.1 Grid Razor Pages template
- Open its csproj file and change the TargetFramework from netcoreapp3.1 to net5.0
- Open the Startup.cs file and remove the line - .SetCompatibilityVersion(CompatibilityVersion.Version_3_0)

Rebuild the project and that's it.
