EP Finder — Entity Platform Finder

DotOrgProjects.EntityPlatform.Finder

How many DbSet<T> properties have you declared by hand? EP Finder discovers them automatically, by convention, with no boilerplate.

The Problem

In EF Core, the developer must explicitly declare each entity in the DbContext. EP Finder replaces that internal mechanism with automatic discovery based on the [Table] attribute, eliminating the need to maintain one DbSet<T> per entity.

Without EP Finder vs With EP Finder

	Without EP Finder	With EP Finder
Entity registration	Manual — one DbSet<T> per entity	Automatic via [Table]
Custom DbContext	Required	Not required
Boilerplate	High — grows with the model	Minimal — just UseFinderIn()
Discovery	Explicit in DbContext	By convention (namespace)
EF Core support	Native ✓	Native + EP Finder ✓

Conclusion

EP Finder does not replace EF Core — it extends it. If you already use EF Core with Data Attributes, EP Finder eliminates the maintenance of the DbContext and the manual registration of each DbSet<T>, letting convention do the work.
