    Yes. The examples I followed show it there. Isn't that what OnConfiguring does? A one time set up?

    If it's not broken, fix it until it is. Everything makes sense in someone's mind. Ya can't fix stupid.

    In a production environment, you would NEVER hardcode a connection string. This would prevent you from developing against a dev version of the database and testing code and migrations without impacting the production database.

        This works differently from the older Entity Frameworks. The reason you're getting the login failure is because the database does not exist in SQLEXPRESS yet. You cannot create the database just by running the code you have, as is. You first have to enable migrations in the project, then create your first migration ("InitialCreate"). Once that is done, you can add the following line your program:

        using (var db = new ModelContext())
        {
        // Update the database to the latest migration
        db.Database.Migrate();

        // Creating a new department and save it to the database
        var newDept = new Departments();
        newDept.DepartmentId = 1;
        newDept.DepartmentName = "Development";
        

        I highly recommend AGAINST doing this! You are far better off managing and applying migrations using the EF command line tools! You can EASILY make a mistake that will destroy a production database just by running your code at the wrong time and with the wrong connection string! Migrations Overview - EF Core | Microsoft Learn[^] On top of that, there's a few mistakes in your code in your initial post above. For example, every DbSet should be DbSet<type> ...

            public virtual DbSet Departments { get; set; }
            public virtual DbSet Employees { get; set; }
        

        ...and there are mispellings in your modelBuilder code, like

        entity.ToTable(**"Employees"**, "public");

          OK, so I went through the Migrations Oerview and installed the necessary packages. I then ran Add Migration and Update Database. Now I get this

            Change "public" to "dbo" in your code. Where did you find this tutorial you're following? The problem with Linq-To-Sql is that it is a dead product and no longer under development.

                OK, I think I have this now. I did the migration and update, and the DB was created and Department and Employee tables added. Next, I added a Companies entity, linked it to Departments, and ran

                dotnet ef migrations add AddCompanies
                dotnet ef database update

                and the Db is now up to date. So I need to run these 2 commands each time I make a change?

                  Yes. You can make a ton of changes and wrap them all in a single migration. Open the migration file and take a look at what's generated.

                    OK, I get it now. That book I referenced doesn't show any of this, so far. Now I get why nothing was happening when I ran my console app. I was under the impression that creating the DBContext would do all of this

                      How do you get a Prod DB update to date with all the migration changes?
