Yes you can leverage WPF (Windows Presentation Foundation) to create desktop applications within a .NET Core environment. Microsoft made WPF available for .NET Core 3.0, aiming for feature parity with the .NET Framework version. While some minor differences might exist, they should be manageable. Install the EF Core NuGet Package: In your project, use the NuGet Package Manager to install the Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Sqlite package (or another provider if you prefer a different database). Create a Data Model: Define your data model classes using C# classes that represent your database tables and relationships. Configure EF Core: Set up the EF Core context in your application to manage database interactions. Access Data in Your WPF Application: Use EF Core's features from your code-behind files or view models to interact with the database, retrieve data, and perform CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) operations.

// Data model class (replace with your table structure) public class Customer { public int CustomerID { get; set; } public string Name { get; set; } } // DbContext class (replace with your connection string) public class MyDbContext : DbContext { public DbSet Customers { get; set; } protected override void OnConfiguring(DbContextOptionsBuilder optionsBuilder) { optionsBuilder.UseSqlite("Data Source=mydatabase.db"); } } // WPF code-behind file (example usage) public partial class MainWindow : Window { private MyDbContext _context; public MainWindow() { InitializeComponent(); _context = new MyDbContext(); } private void LoadCustomersButton_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e) { var customers = _context.Customers.ToList(); // Bind customers to your WPF list or display them as needed } }
