Code First

Code First is an approach in software development, particularly in object-relational mapping (ORM), where developers start by writing code to define the structure of the application, such as databases and data models, before creating the actual database. This method allows developers to focus on designing the application logic and relationships between data using programming languages. The ORM then generates the database schema based on this code. This approach is favored for its flexibility and ease of managing changes, as developers can make adjustments to the code without dealing with the underlying database structure directly.
