Technical requirements
I recommend using your favorite editor to view the GitHub repository. Our recommendations include the following:
- Visual Studio (preferably 2022 or newer)
- Visual Studio Code
- JetBrains Rider
The editor we’ll be using is Visual Studio Enterprise 2022, but any version (Community or Professional) will work with the code.
We will also be using SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) for our example at the end of the chapter. However, if you feel you don’t need to download another tool, you can view SQL Server data through Visual Studio 2022 as well without installing SSMS.
Downloading SQL Server Developer Edition
To run a local copy of SQL Server, download the Developer edition of SQL Server from https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/sql-server/sql-server-downloads.
The code for this chapter is located in Packt Publishing’s GitHub repository, which you can navigate to here: https://github.com/PacktPublishing/ASP.NET-Core...
