# BlipDrop



**_BlipDrop_** is an ASP.NET MVC case study solution created to accompany a guide in the [**PluralSight Guides**](https://www.pluralsight.com/guides) collection for Microsoft .NET technologies.

* As of the latest commit.



## Getting Started



1. Download or clone this repository.

1. Open the solution in Visual Studio 2017 or higher.

1. Select the **Blip.Drop** project.

1. Open the _Web.config_ file in the project root and update the value of `connectionString` for the `ApplicationDbContext` connection string to point to a SQL Server database engine that exists on your local machine.

1. Open a Package Manager Console window.

1. Run: `update-database`.



This will create the database, apply Entity Framework migrations, and run the `Seed` method to populate the database with values for the lookup tables.



## Configuration



* The project contains a configuration string which may require modification for the developer's specific environment:



    | Project | File

    | :--- | :---

    | Blip.Web | Web.config



* The configuration string specifies the target database server: `Data Source=(localdb)\MSSQLLOcalDB`. Developers using a different target database will have to change the connection string.
