Devart is delighted to introduce the release of Entity Developer 6.3 . Entity Developer now features support for Entity Framework Core 2.1.
Entity Developer allows you to design models for Entity Framework Core 2.1.1 and supports all the new features. You may define classes as query types, add parameters for class properties to a parameterized constructor, configure lazy loading for entire model or for separate navigation properties visually.
