Hey devs,
Like many of you, I’ve spent way too many hours writing manual OnModelCreating code and mapping entities. Recently, I’ve been looking for ways to speed up my data layer workflow, especially for projects with complex database relationships (like the POS/Integration systems I work on).
I decided to give Devart’s Entity Developer a try for a "Model-First" approach. The ability to design the ORM visually and just hit "Generate" to get production-ready EF Core code is a game changer.
I put together a 6-minute guide showing the full process from visual design to generated code:

For those who use visual tools: Do you find them better for maintainability, or do you still prefer pure Code-First? I’d love to hear your thoughts on this workflow.
(Disclaimer: I collaborated with Devart to showcase this, but the time-saving results are very real for my daily work).
