Hi Amar,

 

Thank you for contacting us and asking about this situation.

Both Telerik UI for ASP.NET Core and MVC use the Kendo UI for jQuery, but you cannot use the 4.xx .NET Framework MVC dll assembly in a Core project and vice versa.

Allow me to clarify the different technologies and the toolsets provided for them. I am glad you opened a ticket about this issue because it's a delicate standpoint with different paths as options to pick from. Then, you can continue onward with the choice you like the most.

Telerik provides multiple different UIs for the various technologies. Let me share them with you so you have a bigger and better picture:

Telerik UI for MVC is suitable for .NET framework versions 4.0, 4.5, 4.6, 4.7 and 4.8:

For .NET Core versions 8 and 9+ you will use Telerik UI for Core:
https://demos.telerik.com/aspnet-core/grid

Blazor is the newest technology offering by Microsoft where Telerik is the lead component provider (based on WebAssembly, not JavaScript):

There is also option for using client frameworks and toolsets like:

- jQuery:
https://demos.telerik.com/kendo-ui/grid/index

- React native:
https://www.telerik.com/kendo-react-ui/components/grid/

- Angular native:
https://www.telerik.com/kendo-angular-ui/components/grid/

- Vue native:
https://www.telerik.com/kendo-vue-ui/components/grid/

We have some pretty neat blogs for describing the migration between different technologies:
 - From Web Forms to Core
 - From Web Forms to Blazor
 - From MVC to Core MVC
 - From MVC to Blazor

To summarize: Telerik UI for Blazor, React, Angular and Vue do not use jQuery. The other Products use it. Therefore, you can use the same Kendo script in both projects. But you cannot mix the Kendo.Mvc.dll assemblies.

I tried to provide a clear and beneficial information. Was this answer helpful?
