Creating the database using Code-First

Before going further, let's do a quick checklist:

  • Are we done with our entities? Yes
  • Do we have a DBMS and a WorldCities database available? Yes
  • Have we gone through all of the required steps we need to complete to actually create and fill in the aforementioned database using Code-First? No

As a matter of fact, we need to take care of two more things:

  • Set up an appropriate Database Context.
  • Enable Code-First Data Migrations support within our project.

Within the following sections, we're going to fill all of these gaps and eventually fill our WorldCities database.
