Hello nopCommerce community,
I have been developing a plugin using nopCommerce for quite some time, and during this period, I have been using the FluentMigrator library to handle database operations. However, some limitations I encountered and the constant need to manually add and delete data during my developments made me think.
Therefore, I have some concerns about using Entity Framework in my developments. I would like to learn about your experiences and recommendations regarding this.
Possible Conflicts: Could there be any conflicts if I use Entity Framework instead of FluentMigrator? Can both libraries be used together?
Performance Impact: How does Entity Framework compare to FluentMigrator in terms of performance? Are there potential performance issues with larger databases?
Community Experience: Have others used Entity Framework for nopCommerce plugin development? What are your experiences?
Recommendations and Caveats: If I decide to use Entity Framework, what are the critical points to be aware of? Any recommendations?
I would greatly appreciate it if you could share your knowledge and opinions on this matter. Thank you!
