After installing the latest Telerik UI for ASP.NET MVC, and choosing File - New Project - Templates - Telerik - Web, should I see a Kendo UI template project? (I am watching the Telerik "The Basics of UI for ASP.NET MVC" video and it shows one there). I am using VS 2013 and Windows 7.
I received a reply from Telerik Tech. Support in one of their forums. It appears that the project templates just have been renamed to new names. I chose "Telerik VB MVC Web Application" instead of "VB Kendo UI for MVC Web Application" (the project template name used in the video) and all of the functionality from the video appears to be there (copying the Kendo UI files into the project, adding CSS and JS lines into the Layout file, giving Kendo UI intellisense, etc.).

I found a sample project that are built on Telerik Extensions for ASP.NET MVC + MVC3. I tried to download Is Telerik Extensions, but could not find it at anywhere. It seems it is for MVC3, after that, it is Kendo UI MVC for MVC4+. So, Is Telerik Extensions for ASP.NET MVC replaced by Keno UI for MVC?
If yes, does it mean we can always rewrite this sample project using Kendo UI MVC? But it seems some do not exist in Kendo anymore, i.e. GridModel, TreeViewItem, ... is there a document to explain this?
Thanks
You cannot direct download the Telerik Extensions for ASP.NET MVC + MVC3. You need to get them via NuGet.
For that,
Fist, open NuGet package manager console in visual studio.
Type the following in console.
Install-Package TelerikMvcExtensions.
Then you will get all Telerik extensions.
To reproduce an issue a user recently posted related to Kendo grid, I thought it might be possible for me to use .NET Fiddle for it. But I am not able to load Kendo references. In my application I add a reference to Kendo.Mvc.dll.
I am wondering is there a way I can add a reference in .NET fiddle. .NET fiddle supports Nuget package however Kendo MVC wrapper does not come in a package.
My fiddle is: https://dotnetfiddle.net/vRAJfO
Just found that Kendo has got a tutorial that let you create charts and play around with it: http://dojo.telerik.com/. But it does not allow you to write ASP.NET MVC style code like .NET Fiddle does.
FYI - I have added a support ticket with telerik for this. Support ID:922106
Will update as soon as I hear back from them.
This is the reply I received from Telerik:
The Kendo UI MVC assembly cannot be publicly accessible, that's why there is no public NuGet package which you can use to reference this assembly in tools such as .NET Fiddle.
The Kendo UI Dojo can be used to create examples with the vanilla HTML/Javascript Kendo UI widgets. There is no way to create fiddles featuring the Kendo UI ASP.NET MVC wrappers. If you need to provide examples and code, please send projects as attachments.
Dojo is designed to be an HTML/JS playground and the code is executed client-side. We currently do not provide a playground, which is able to execute server-side code.
I've installed ASP.NET MVC3 and the Tools Update, but don't see any MVC3 controls in the Toolbox.
If they are supposed to be there, how do I add them?
If not, why not?
MVC does not have any server controls that come with Visual Studio. It is a completely different paradigm from ASP.NET Forms type development where you use standard HTML controls and control behavior with JavaScript/JQuery. You can extend them with third party controls which are usually in the form of JavaScript libraries. A good one to start with is JQuery UI which is open source and included in the template project that is created for MVC 3.
No. MVC doesn't have server controls. A great place to start is ASP.NET MVC Overview.
From asp.net/mvc i downloaded the MVC 3 Installer, and ran it:
When it finished, i loaded Visual Studio and tried to create a "New" Web-site. But there's no option to create an ASP.NET MVC web-site:
i expected to see something like what's shown on the ASP.NET MVC homepage:
There is also a Getting Started tutorial that lists the steps to follow:
Creating Your First Application
You can create applications using either Visual Basic or Visual C# as
the programming language. Select Visual C# on the left and then select
ASP.NET MVC 3 Web Application.
After that didn't work, i also tried:
a web platform installer
another Web Platform Installer (from the MVC3 homepage)
or download the installer here (also from the MVC3 homepage)
Click on File -> New PROJECT (NOT WEBSITE). it should be in your list
Look in your control panel
DO you have -
Click on New Project and Under Visual C#, select the Web Menu Item. In the list of projects you should see a ASP.NET MVC3 Web Application. Thats what you need to use.
Btw - Are you using Visual Studio Express??
This seems really silly but;
How can I know which version of ASP.net MVC I've on my system. I've tried Help->About in Visual Studio (2008) but its not there.
When you're in the New Project window, look at the installed templates under web. ASP.NET MVC Web Application is 1.0 (and will say so in the description). The same goes for ASP.NET MVC 2.

In the Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs, I see "Microsoft ASP.NET MVC 1.0" on my machine...
I also see the following comment between the project type selection window and the filename box when I go to start a new MVC project:
"A project for creating an application using the ASP.NET MVC framework (1.0) (.NET Framework 3.5)"
