Hi Megatron,  
 
Thank you for using Syncfusion products.  
 
Query 1: SF project/controls Migration to  
Query 1a:  
To migrate SF ASP MVC projects to SF ASP MVC Core 
Answer: 
Currently we are not yet provide the Syncfusion Conversion utility for convert the Syncfusion ASP.NET MVC application to Syncfusion ASP.NET Core application and already we have planned to provide the Syncfusion ASP.NET Core conversion support from the Syncfusion ASP.NET MVC application in any one of our upcoming releases. But you can convert the Microsoft ASP.NET MVC application to Microsoft ASP.NET Core application by follow the manual steps which is given in the below link.  


Once your application gets migrated to ASP.NET Core, then we need to modify the control syntax as per the below UG Documentation link to render the Syncfusion controls.  

To know more about how to render the Syncfusion component in ASP.NET Core platfrom please refer the below UG Documentation link. 

  
 
 
To know more about our component in ASP.NET Core platform please refer the below demo site. 

 
 
Query 1b: 
 
To migrate SF controls from Bootstrap 3.7 to Bootstrap 4 

Answer: 
 
We have checked with your query. If your requirement is belonging to Bootstrap CSS styles, we suspect that need to change the required Bootstrap version in “bower.json” file to migrate Syncfusion controls form Bootstrap 3.7 to Bootstrap 4. If it is not meet your requirement, please revert with more information that will help us to provide exact solution. 
Query 2: SF Text Editor Feedback

Could you please provide more elaborate details on the issue you are facing with replication steps and necessary screenshots? It will help us debug the issue locally and to provide solution.

Hello,

The migration for Gird to Bootstrap 4 failed, many classes are embedded inside the SF css file co-relating to BS 3 version,

The text editor is poorly tested, please try formatting bullet points -> then change the format or one bullet point, -> add image, indent left, then right.

It will be completely messed up. Many other steps dont format correctly.

Since the main SF controls file is too big, I was wondering  How much/What is the file download size of the Grid alone, or File size of other SF controls, there is no page listed on this currently.

Hi Megatron, 
 
Query 1: The migration for Gird to Bootstrap 4 failed, many classes are embedded inside the SF css file co-relating to BS 3 version, 
We have rendered the grid against  Bootstrap 4 ,the grid is working fine and also we have ensured the editing options by enable the editing type as normal text editor, dropdown, numeric and date picker there is no formatting issues as well. For your convenience we have created the sample that can be downloaded from the below location,  
  
  
Query 2: The text editor is poorly tested, please try formatting bullet points -> then change the format or one bullet point, -> add image, indent left, then right. 
 
We checked the reported issues in online demo link of RTE and the toolbar options works fine in our end. Please refer to the below screenshots 
 
 
 
Now changing the format for first line alone 
 
 
 
Please provide us details on whether you are facing this issues in your sample else RTE used in the below link. 
 
 
If possible please share us a video to reproduce the issue in our end so that we can proceed further. 
 
 
Query 3: Since the main SF controls file is too big, I was wondering  How much/What is the file download size of the Grid alone, or File size of other SF controls, there is no page listed on this currently 
 
Refer the CSG tool initialization and follow the below instructions  
   
   
If you have checked the Individual File option, then this tool will generate individual scripts for  the selected components . Otherwise, the CSG generates a single pack of script file which holds script for all the selected number of components.  
 
Visit the following link to generate the scripts using CSG.   
   
   
    
   
We have generated a themes and Script with the above configuration that can be downloaded from the following location.   
   
   
From this, you can get the following folders which holds ej.widget.all.min.js (scripts) whereas themes had ej.widgets.core.min.css and default-theme and common-images folder.   
   
     
Replace this scripts and themes in your MVC application as shown in the following screenshot.   
   
    
 
Regards, 
Keerthana.
