Can the PDF Viewer Service be written in something else than ASPNET MVC?

Could this PDF Viewer Service be written in Django?

In the documentation, I see there is a dependency of Syncfusion.EJ2.PdfViewer.AspNet.MVC5 which can be installed with NuGet package manager, is this a blocking in my quest?
If I understood correctly my server needs to implement these Http POST methods like Load, Bookmarks, RenderPdfPages, etc. as seen in the how-to section https://ej2.syncfusion.com/documentation/pdfviewer/how-to/create-pdfviewer-service/ but all those methods I see that they make use of new PdfRenderer() which I don't see where it comes from, and I'm assuming it comes from that dependency mentioned above...
Any hints would be appreciated.

At present we do not have support for PDF Viewer Web service in Django. PDF Viewer control is both server and the client side oriented. PDF viewer control processes the PDF document in the server side(developed with .NET environment) and send the processed PDF data to the client using the web service to render the PDF document and for further operations in PDF viewer.

Yes,  as mentioned above our PDF Viewer control has the server side dependency, which helps to render the PDF document and  PdfRenderer class comes from the dependency Syncfusion.EJ2.PdfViewer.AspNet.MVC5  for ASP.NET MVC platform  


We can also create PDF Viewer web service project in ASP.NET Core. Please find the below link for reference,
