Entity Framework Core 2: Getting Started

Learn Entity Framework Core 2 and master database persistence in your .NET applications! This course provides a comprehensive introduction to EF Core, Microsoft's powerful Object-Relational Mapper (ORM) for .NET development.

Whether you're a beginner or have experience with earlier versions of Entity Framework, this course will guide you through the process of building robust and efficient data access layers.

Here's what you'll learn:

• Defining an EF Core Data Model: Understand how to create a data model that seamlessly connects your .NET objects to your database schema. This forms the foundation for efficient data management.
• Interacting with the Data Model: Explore the various APIs offered by EF Core to perform CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) operations and manage your data effectively.
• Integrating with .NET Applications: Discover how to incorporate your EF Core data model into both:
  • Desktop Applications built with the .NET Framework.
  • Cross-Platform Web Applications using ASP.NET Core MVC.

By the end of this course, you'll be equipped to build scalable and maintainable .NET Framework and .NET Core software leveraging the power of Entity Framework Core 2. All coding examples are demonstrated within Visual Studio 2017 on a Windows environment. Gain proficiency in modern database persistence techniques with this practical, hands-on training.
