Code First or Database First

If you have to create database and write code then you have to use code first, because it is using this there is no chance of error and mismatching of properties in models. so i suggest you to do Code First technique.

Database first and code second

Kunal Vaishya10y ago

Hi,

Option 1 - Code first
>> You have to Create Models/Entities and DB will create based on your Models/Entities.

Option 2 - DB first
>> You can create Database first and then add it EF and use it according.

Both the Option is Good but I suggest OPtion 2(DB first) Not Option 1(Code first).
In Option 1(Code first) it is very difficult maintain database changes because you have to change in your Models/Entities.
