How to Bind List to Grid in Asp.Net MVC

Question

I am trying to bind database to Grid in MVC5 application, its my first attempt.

Created Model class, and Controller. My model is returning data table. and i would like to bind the data in the grid. Below is my controller code which will return list.

    List<SystemManagmentModel> fileStores = new List<SystemManagmentModel>();
    SystemManagmentModel fileStore = new SystemManagmentModel();
    fileStores.Add(fileStore);
    return View(fileStores);

I am able to add Model in the view @model IEnumerable

From here i am unable to understand how to create grid and how to bind this list.I have selected Razor view Engine.

Take a look at MVC Grid it is a life saver.

This is how you would use it:

@Html.Grid(Model).Columns(columns =>
{
columns.Add(x => x.Property).Titled("name of column header").Sortable(true);

columns.Add(x => x.DateTimeProperty).Titled("Release Date").SortInitialDirection(GridSortDirection.Descending)
    .Format("{0:dd/MM/yyyy HH:mm}")
    .ThenSortByDescending(x => x.DateTimeProperty);

columns.Add(x => x.Property3).Titled("Another Prop");

columns.Add(x => x.Id)
.Titled(string.Empty)
.Encoded(false)
.Sanitized(false)
.RenderValueAs(x => @<b> @Html.ActionLink("Delete", "DeleteAction", new { id = x.Id })</b>)
    .SetWidth(100);

}).Sortable(true)
