I have created a console project for C# and installed the following packages:

Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Sqlite
Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore
Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Tools

I have a sqlite3 database at a path c:\Data\db.sqlite

How can I connect to this database (in particular what is the connection string?) and how can I reverse engineer the database into my C# project? (i.e. creation of DbContext and models)

    the connection string is simply: "Data Source=c:\Data\SeguroMedicoMFC.sqlite;"
