I am new to both MVC as well as Entity Framework, but I want to do my next project using those technologies. I went through the NerdDinner tutorial at http://nerddinnerbook.s3.amazonaws.com/Part1.htm. NerdDinner uses Linq to Sql and uses the Repository pattern to manage data access. NerdDinner is written so well that I wanted to use it as my guide when working on my new project. Unfortunately, since it’s using Linq to Sql, and the recommendation now is to use Entity Framework 4, I got thrown off a little. Since I am also new to MVC, I sort of need a good example like NerdDinner to start off with, and I’m unable to find something similar except that uses the EntityFramework 4.0.
If I start off using Linq to Sql with the repository pattern like NerDinner does, it should be pretty easy to switch to EntityFramework later right?
Are there any good tutorials using MVC 2 and EF 4?
There is an Entity Framework Nerddinner.com sample:
