Abstract
Using Entity Framework Core makes using databases easier, but it doesn’t free the developer from understanding how they work and how actions performed by the application are translated into SQL commands, especially when unexpected results occur. In this chapter, I show you the tools that Visual Studio provides for examining databases and show you how to execute different kinds of SQL commands. You don’t need to be an expert in SQL to use Entity Framework Core, but having an understanding of the basics can be helpful when you don’t get the outcome you intended.
