Knockout and MVC Razor

We want to reskin our application (ASP.Net , C#, JQuery) using this template https://themeforest.net/item/minotaur-angular-admin-dashboard/19319935

That template comes with Angular and jQuery but we're going to use the jQuery version.

I want to replace our CSS with the template's CSS and rework the pages and reskin.

We have a new guy on our team who's worked with Knockout. He said something like we can wire up Knockout and spit out Razor pages with the new look-and-feel/css.
Anyone has done something like that? where can I find more info?

Thanks, guys. That step by step link is good and gives me an idea what the developer might be thinking but I think (per Snarf's #2), will stick with what the template has and not deviate... I'll stick with jQuery (that template comes with Angular but we're not using Angular now) and just reskin like that.

Quick question (I want to have a good reason for my manager as to why I don't want to use Knockout)

The link Chinmay sent https://www.mytecbits.com/microsoft/dot-net/knockout-js-and-bootstrap-with-asp-net-mvc-part-2

I see an AJAX call and JS code to get the data. So, with Knockout, I do need to make some code changes like adding AJAX, and JS files, correct?

Thanks for your kind words Camillia. There is an advantage working with you. You are open to ideas and even if when I don't get your point (initially or sometimes till the end :D), you are patient and you are willing to put in efforts to get to the bottom of question/answer (not this one, this one was rather simple). That is why I prefer helping people like you. All the best with your new venture.
