From the course: Building Applications with Angular, ASP.NET Core, and Entity Framework Core

Welcome

- [Alexander] Hi, I'm Alexander Zanfir. In this course, we will learn how to develop a full stack application with Angular, ASP.NET Core 2.0, and focus on Entity Framework Core 2.0. Entity Framework is an object relational mapper, or ORM that allows developers to work wit relational data using domain specific objects. It eliminates the need for most of the data access code that developers usually need to write. The simple idea is that we create objects that will give us access to the data in our database. Entity Framework doesn't care about what database you use. Although you should have some basic understanding of programming, Angular, and ASP.NET, we will build everything in our demo app from start to finish, so anyone can follow along and finish the course. We will begin this course directly with coding and learn how the front end and back end components such as ASP.NET Core work with Entity Framework Core and Angular. Now that you have an idea of what we'll be covering, let's get started.
