About this tag
Entity Framework is Microsoft's object-relational mapper (ORM) for .NET, enabling developers to work with databases using .NET objects. Discussions on WindowsForum.com cover Entity Framework 7 features such as migrations, shadow properties, and key generation strategies using sequences. Practical issues like altering column types (e.g., changing int to double) and resolving dependency errors with default constraints are also addressed. The tag includes content on using SQLite with UWP apps, where Entity Framework can serve as the data access layer. For those pursuing .NET development, Entity Framework is a core skill alongside C#, ASP.NET, and cloud tooling. The forum provides troubleshooting help and insights into EF7's evolving capabilities.
