Grid Editing with ASP.NET MVC and LinqtoSql Entity Framework

[Randy]

Sorry if this has been covered somewhere, but I'm new to Kendo and am having trouble finding examples and/or documentation on this.

Basically I'm trying to figure out how to leverage a LinqtoSql entity framework in a .NET MVC application to handle edits/updates/deletes to my database with a Kendo Grid. I'm coming from an AJAX .NET webforms (so not even MVC!) world where tying a .NET grid to a LinqDataSource was pretty much all you needed to handle CRUD operations.

Thanks!

Hello Randy,

All of our offline demos (which code is also available in the online demos) demonstrate how to use the Grid with Entity Framework as an ORM. 

You can find the demos in the following folder by default if you have installed the extensions with the msi installer.

C:\Program Files (x86)\Telerik\Kendo UI for ASP.NET MVC Q2 2013\wrappers\aspnetmvc\Examples

Do not forget to follow the documentation to implement basic operations such as reading and updating.

http://docs.kendoui.com/getting-started/using-kendo-with/aspnet-mvc/helpers/grid/ajax-editing

Also you can find demos in the code library which again use the EF and the Northwind database as a back-end.
