- We will make a brief comparison with Dapper, to see what is the difference between each of these tools.

- We will see how to read, update, delete, and create data using Entity Framework Core.

- We will learn to work with relationships between our tables: One-to-many relationships, one-to-one relationships, and many-to-many relationships.

- We will use the Fluent API to configure the schema of our database.

- We will see how to use automatic tests in our Entity Framework Core projects.

- We will learn about the new features that Entity Framework Core 6 brings us.

- We will see how to execute stored procedures using Entity Framework Core.

- We will load the related data of our entities in different ways, using eager loading, explicit loading, select loading and lazy loading.

- We will learn that with deferred execution we can use interesting techniques to make our code more flexible and reusable.

- We will see techniques on how to correctly configure Entity Framework Core in ASP.NET Core, for example, we will see when we should use a pool to recycle the DbContext.
