Syncfusion® provides Visual Studio Project Templates for creating Syncfusion® React applications. These templates automatically configure your project with the required Syncfusion® references, components, and CDN links to accelerate development with Syncfusion® React components.
The Syncfusion® React project templates are available from v17.1.0.47.
Follow these steps to create a Syncfusion® React application using Visual Studio:
- Open Visual Studio 2017 or later.
-
Launch the Syncfusion® Project creation wizard using one of these methods:
Option 1:
Choose Extensions → Syncfusion → Essential Studio® for ASP.NET Core → Create New Syncfusion® Project… from the Visual Studio menu.

In Visual Studio 2017, the Syncfusion menu may appear directly in the Visual Studio menu.
Option 2:
Choose File > New > Project in Visual Studio. In the Create a new project dialog, filter by Syncfusion or search for “Syncfusion” to list the provided templates.

In Visual Studio 2017, navigate to Syncfusion > .NET Core > Syncfusion ASP.NET Core (Essential JS 2) Web Application.
-
Select the Syncfusion ASP.NET Core Web Application template and click Next.

-
Provide the project name and destination, then click Create. The Syncfusion project configuration wizard appears.

Choose the Syncfusion React.js template, select the required theme and assets, then click Create.
-
The Syncfusion React application is created and configured with the selected Syncfusion packages, scripts, and styles.
- Verify the added Syncfusion NPM packages, scripts, and selected styles are present in the project files.
