Prerequisites
System requirements for ASP.NET Core controls

NOTE
The Syncfusion.EJ2.AspNet.Core NuGet package has dependencies, Newtonsoft.Json for JSON serialization and Syncfusion.Licensing for validating Syncfusion license key.

Open ~/Views/_ViewImports.cshtml
file and import the Syncfusion.EJ2
TagHelper.
@addTagHelper *, Syncfusion.EJ2
Add style sheet
Checkout the Themes topic to learn different ways (CDN, NPM package, and CRG) to refer styles in ASP.NET Core application, and to have the expected appearance for Syncfusion ASP.NET Core controls. Here, the theme is referred using CDN inside the <head>
of ~/Pages/Shared/_Layout.cshtml
file as follows,
<head>
...
<!-- Syncfusion ASP.NET Core controls styles -->
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://cdn.syncfusion.com/ej2/21.1.35/fluent.css" />

element withe-card-header-caption
class, and also content will be added by adding element withe-card-content
