This PR enhances the EF Core migrations documentation to address common issues developers face when working with Entity Framework migrations in .NET Aspire projects.
Key Enhancements
1. Package Manager Console Instructions
Added comprehensive guidance for using Visual Studio's Package Manager Console as an alternative to CLI commands:
2. Troubleshooting Section
Added detailed troubleshooting for the most common migration issues:
"No database provider has been configured" error:
Multiple databases scenarios:
Startup project configuration:
3. Enhanced Clarity
Problem Solved
The original documentation existed but lacked practical troubleshooting guidance that developers needed when encountering common migration issues in .NET Aspire projects. This enhancement provides clear, actionable solutions to the specific problems mentioned in the GitHub issue.
Example of Enhanced Content
Before: Basic CLI instructions only
After: Both CLI and Package Manager Console instructions with troubleshooting
The enhanced documentation now covers edge cases and provides solutions that work in real-world development scenarios.
Fixes #1664.
