Why with upgrade from 2017.1.223 to 2017.2.504 I need to move including of kendo scripts at front of page after body?

In 2017.1.223 I simply include jquery after body (this is unavoidable I guess) and add all other at end of page. But then I upgrade to 2017.2.504 I get "kendo is not defined" (rolling back to 2017.1.223 solves). Also I even did not upgrade bower package in this situation. Just nuget.

so next is _layout.cshtml as to was (working on 2017.1.223 and do not on 2017.2.504 )

and second block works with 2017.2.504

Please tell me if I`am wrong but it is better to shove scripts to the bottom for page rendering performance.

Hello Dima,

In this scenario, the issue occurs because of the rendering order.

This issue occurs when the scripts are loaded after the body is rendered, and the kendo object is still not available.

I can assume that in this scenario, the difference is that they are placed before and after:

@RenderBody()

The Kendo UI team has no full control where the scripts have to be placed, they just have to be loaded, before the widgets are rendered.

Hello Dima,

In step 7 of the article, it is shown that the scripts have to be rendered in the body but over the @RenderSection() method. We will add the @RenderBody() method as well.

http://docs.telerik.com/aspnet-core/getting-started/getting-started

Still, as indeed there is an issue with the article as new changes occur with every new version of ASP.NET Core, we will try to update it accordingly.
