Summary

Align the tutorial so it consistently uses a single EF Core database provider (SQLite or SQL Server) across the CLI/package installation steps and the DbContext registration/configuration code, removing the current mixed guidance.

Suggested Fixes

Instructions for Copilot: Copilot should only fix suggestions with a checkmark and do not make any updates for unchecked suggestions.

• In the “Add NuGet packages and tools” section and the later DbContext/provider configuration snippet (typically in Program.cs), choose one provider for the walkthrough and make all commands/snippets match it. If the intent is SQLite (as implied by the CLI instructions), remove the SQL Server provider package and update the code snippet to use UseSqlite.

  Example fix (SQLite end-to-end):

  • Update package commands to include only SQLite:

    dotnet add package Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Sqlite
    dotnet add package Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Tools

    (Remove any dotnet add package Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.SqlServer line.)
  • Update Program.cs (or the section that registers the context) from SQL Server to SQLite:

    builder.Services.AddDbContext<BlazorWebAppMoviesContext>(options =>
        options.UseSqlite(builder.Configuration.GetConnectionString("BlazorWebAppMoviesContext")
            ?? "Data Source=BlazorWebAppMovies.db"));

  • Update appsettings.json connection string accordingly:

    {
      "ConnectionStrings": {
        "BlazorWebAppMoviesContext": "Data Source=BlazorWebAppMovies.db"
      }
    }

  Ensure any dotnet ef migrations / dotnet ef database update steps remain valid for the selected provider.

  (If the intended provider is SQL Server instead, make the opposite change: remove SQLite package/CLI references and ensure the snippet uses UseSqlServer with a SQL Server connection string.)
