What's are the differences between Scaffold-DbContext and DevArt provided EF Core template?

Entity Developer (with the EF Core template) gives more functionality and flexibility, it allows:
1) setting up properties of EF Core template
2) editing EF Core template and adding other predefined templates
3) employing Update To Database / Update From Database wizards for modifying entire model (or only its part)

Got it!

BTW do you know if is there a guide on how do you use "Entity Developer"'s class models?

Please refer to Microsoft documentation which describes how to work with EF Core: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/ef/.

1. Entity Developer code generator system is based on its own object model. Its engine uses T4-like template language: https://www.devart.com/entitydeveloper/ ... ation.html.

2. Refer to https://www.devart.com/entitydeveloper/ ... eloper.chm (download, right click > Properties > Unblock), navigate to the "Template System Concepts" section.

3. You can use IntelliSense feature in our T4 Editor (completion list appears when you type the '.' character).
