Hello friends,

I am working on a web API project that I implemented with the code-first approach. I wonder if there is a problem creating tables manually without using migrations. Does it cause any problems?

Thank you.

    Hi Cenk, To create a table manually, you can create the table with SSMS (for example) after that, you scaffold the database to generate the entities.
