We currently have a classic ASP.NET web application which serves as our API. It basically has a bunch of ASMX Web Services, but these are really cumbersome to work with from JavaScript. What I want is to expose a set of RESTful endpoints, but doing this in classis ASP.NET is not what I really want to do.
I'm considering to combine both classic ASP.NET and ASP.NET MVC in one web app. Is this possible at all? If yes, what are the issues/problems I may encounter?

Luckily, the answer is yes. Combining ASP.NET Webforms and ASP.NET MVC in one application is possible—in fact, it is quite easy. The reason for this is that the ASP.NET MVC framework has been built on top of ASP.NET.
MVC is just a different implementation of the IHttpHandler interface so both classic ASP.NET and ASP.NET MVC pages can coexist in the same app. Show activity on this post. As you've probably noticed with the above answers, yes this is very possible to do.
The main difference between ASP.NET Core and ASP.NET MVC 5 is their cross-platform approach. ASP.NET Core can be used on Windows, Mac, or Linux, whereas ASP.NET MVC 5 can only be used for applications on Windows. The ASP.NET Core MVC is a framework for building web apps and APIs, optimized for use with ASP.NET Core.
ASP.NET MVC 6 comes with some new features as well. Some prominent ones are: - MVC, WEB API and Web Pages are merged into one single framework. - Project.
Aha! It seems that this is very much possible. Here's a comprehensive article which describes what should be done.
