Hi friends I'm new here. I'm using NopCommerce (version 3.90) as a solution to a fashion based eCommerce web application to provide to my client after modifying it as per his requirements.
NopCommerce uses Entity Framework's Code-First approach. In NopCommerce, creating a new entity or modifying some existing entity requires many changes in many places. I'm also not fully aware of all
processes happening in NopCommerce's code right now so I'm avoiding to touch the existing code as far as I can. But as I already said, I have to modify it as per client's requirements and to do it, I want to use DB-First approach in the same solution where Code-First is already being used as I'm more comfortable with DB-First.
Thats why I want to ask that is it fine to use 2 approaches which are Code-First (already being used) and DB-First (I want to use) in the same .net solution ?
is it prone to errors in future for an e-commerce site and if so, what are those possible errors ?
what is the right way to use these 2 entity-framework approaches simultaneously in the same .net solution ?
please note that both of these approaches will be using one single Nop database.
Thanks & Regards,
Sumit
