Thank you, nice video to refresh my mind and remember at the basic level how all this works. I did this once to my project and never more and now that I'm starting another project I forgot all those small details to make it work.

I've been banging my head for several days but your tutorial solved my problem right away. Many thanks, dude!

Many thanks, David. Was really helpful and super quickly introduction. As all the tutorials should be.... congratulations

Thank man. I'll never find out that the property "all" has to be removed. Thank you!

Thanks a lot man! You are a life saver :)

You could build a second project with just an appsetting in it to connect the database for migration AFAIK. This is how AspNetBoilerPlate builds their migration project.

this is nice but somebody needs to do deployment migration with frequent entity changes

I have an error when run Add-Migration
Error message is "The specified deps.json [D:\%^&*%^&*%&*\deps.json] does not exist"
I google that qusetion and didn't find solution..

Many thanks for the video, is there another video showing how to change an existing table?

[bakshev]

Hi, can someone advise how I can add a table from the SQL Server to my VS? Basically I scaffolded the database, but one table is missing.

At offset=1:10 you show the flawed MS text offering "Script-Migrations", but don't be fooled as the package is Script-Migration

[longlancer]

Had a question If I have already completed my initial add-migration, update-database commands and I want to go back into my Model and add a few additional properties would I just need to run update-database again and the new fields would then be added to my already existing SQL schema?

You sound like Bob Odenkirk. Great video though

great stuff. it would be great if the font was bigger so it would look ok on a 720p resolution (15.6'' laptop)
