CRUD Mapped Context Service
https://github.com/jcc1983jcc/crudsimplexThe CRUD Mapped Context Service is an abstract class that offers out-of-the-box CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) functionality for Entity Framework classes. It simplifies the process by utilizing the Automapper IMapper to handle mapping between the external model and the internal entity.
Migrating ERP to Cloud
The company star project for more than 10 years was a Windows Forms C# ERP. The service needed an on-premises database server which needed a technician from our team to go to the client office for a few days to set up.
After migrating the server-side to the cloud (Azure) with Microsoft-MSDN third party authentication, we were able to reduce the setup time of a new client from one month to half an hour.
