[This content is no longer valid. For the latest information on "M", "Quadrant", SQL Server Modeling Services, and the Repository, see the Model Citizen blog.]

In this tutorial, you create domains and schemas by using “M” and the Entity Framework in Visual Studio 2010, and you build an ASP.NET MVC 2.0 Web application that uses the models to display data. Unlike the Getting Started with the SQL Server Modeling CTP (SetupApplication Tutorial), which focuses on a small but real-world development scenario (a setup application), this tutorial focuses on the basic steps of model-driven application development.

Tutorial Steps

This tutorial contains the following topics:

  1. Create a Domain using "M"

  2. Add Schemas to a Domain

  3. Deploy Domains to the Database

  4. Develop Using Generated Entity Framework Classes

  5. Add a Main Web Page to the Application

  6. Generate "M" from an Existing Database
