net-repository-pattern

What problem does it solve?

This skill provides a clean, reusable data access layer for .NET projects by implementing a repository pattern with Unit of Work for EF Core. It decouples data access concerns from domain logic, improves testability, and reduces boilerplate across aggregates.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Generic repository base: A shared base with common CRUD and query capabilities.
• Specific repositories: Concrete repositories per aggregate (e.g., Product, Order, User).
• Unit of Work pattern: Coordinated commits across repositories.
• EF Core integration: DbContext-based data access with EF Core.
• Specification pattern support: Flexible queries via ISpecification.
• Use Case: Implement data access layer for multiple aggregates in a clean, maintainable way.

Quick Start

Create a new .NET project, add EF Core and infrastructure layers, implement AppDbContext, add base repository and unit of work, and execute sample queries using the UnitOfWork.
