I have an MVC 5 application, made from the empty template. I've added Microsoft.AspNet.Mvc via Nuget and my packages file looks like so:
<packages>
<package id="Microsoft.AspNet.Mvc" version="5.2.3" targetFramework="net46" />
<package id="Microsoft.AspNet.Razor" version="3.2.3" targetFramework="net46" />
<package id="Microsoft.AspNet.WebPages" version="3.2.3" targetFramework="net46" />
<package id="Microsoft.CodeDom.Providers.DotNetCompilerPlatform" version="1.0.0" targetFramework="net46" />
<package id="Microsoft.Net.Compilers" version="1.0.0" targetFramework="net46" developmentDependency="true" />
<package id="Microsoft.Web.Infrastructure" version="1.0.0.0" targetFramework="net46" />
</packages>
I have a Razor page that declares a model with @model IEnumerable<Models.ToDoModel> and uses it in a foreach loop.
@model IEnumerable<Models.ToDoModel>
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width" />
<title>Home</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Hello World!</h1>
<ul>
@foreach (var item in Model)
{
<li>ID: @item.Id</li>
}
</ul>
</body>
</html>
When I run the page, it renders fine, however Visual Studio persistently said there's an error:
It won't recognise the model keyword or give me any Intellisense.
My Web.Config looks like so:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
