Flem100 Thank you for this! Very important that we don't have to switch to ef core at the same time we switch to .netcore. That we can split the conversion into 2 steps, helps a lot!
And thank you EF power tools.
May I ask for the reason(s) for NOT having the edmx anymore? It's sooo pretty and quite simple to use so making the switch is such a tough decision.
