sql2solution can generate a multi-project .NET solution with API, Application, Domain, Infrastructure, Razor Pages client, Blazor client, and test projects. This gives teams a real starting structure instead of a pile of disconnected files.
✅ Benefit: Developers can inspect the generated solution layout immediately and understand where controllers, DTOs, entities, EF Core infrastructure, clients, and tests live.
The generated ASP.NET Core API exposes Swagger/OpenAPI documentation so endpoints can be explored, tested, and shared with client developers.
✅ Benefit: Teams get API discoverability right away, which makes validation, integration, and handoff easier.
The generated solution can include automated tests and validation coverage so teams can check API behavior after generation.
✅ Benefit: Smoke tests and generated test structure help catch broken assumptions before the solution becomes production work.
sql2solution can validate generated output before the developer even opens the solution in Visual Studio. This helps confirm that generated projects, API behavior, and smoke checks are aligned.
✅ Benefit: Developers can detect generation issues earlier and start from a cleaner, more trustworthy solution.
The generated Blazor UI can browse resources and interact with the generated backend API. This helps teams see the generated API through a practical user interface.
✅ Benefit: A working generated client makes the solution easier to demo, validate, and extend.
This animation shows the generated Blazor UI running without authentication, useful for fast demos, schema validation, and early user-interface review.
✅ Benefit: Teams can quickly review generated screens and API-connected behavior before adding more security complexity.
Generated clients can be configured to point at the generated backend API endpoint, keeping the client and server workflow explicit.
✅ Benefit: Developers can connect generated frontend and backend projects cleanly when running locally or preparing a demo environment.
The generated client workflow can remind users to set the API endpoint correctly before running the client against the backend.
✅ Benefit: Clear endpoint validation reduces setup confusion and helps developers avoid debugging the wrong problem.
The generated solution can be started locally with multiple projects so developers can see the API and client working together.
✅ Benefit: Teams can validate the generated solution as a running system, not only as source code.

The Solution Configuration workflow is where sql2solution turns a SQL Server schema into a controlled .NET generation plan. These walkthroughs show how developers can load a project, validate database metadata, choose architecture, configure API styles, manage DTO rules, and set solution-wide defaults before generating code.
Use the toggles below to explore each configuration area.
🧭 Solution Configuration Overview
Configure the core solution settings before generation begins: project shape, naming, target framework, API behavior, client output, and generation conventions. This gives teams a repeatable setup for SQL-backed ASP.NET Core API projects instead of rebuilding the same decisions by hand for every database.
✅ Benefit: Developers can standardize the generated solution early, reduce setup mistakes, and keep project structure consistent across client work, internal tools, and SaaS products.
📂 Load An Existing sql2solution Project
Open an existing sql2solution configuration and continue working from saved project settings. This is useful when a schema changes, a client requests new behavior, or a team wants to regenerate parts of a solution without starting from scratch.
✅ Benefit: Saved configurations make the generator practical for real projects that evolve over time, not just one-off demos.
🧾 SQL Table Entity Loading And Validation
Load table metadata and validate entities before code generation. sql2solution can surface table structure, fields, keys, relationships, and schema issues so developers can make generation decisions from real database metadata.
✅ Benefit: Early validation helps avoid broken generated endpoints, missing relationships, incorrect DTOs, and late surprises after code has already been produced.
🔌 Manage SQL Server Connection Strings By Environment
Create and organize multiple SQL Server connection strings for different environments, clients, databases, or deployment targets. Environment-aware configuration keeps development, staging, test, and production settings easier to manage.
✅ Benefit: Teams can switch contexts quickly and reduce connection-string mistakes when generating APIs from multiple SQL Server databases.
🏗️ Supported Architecture Options
Choose the generated architecture style, including controller-based APIs, service-layer patterns, clean architecture, and minimal API approaches. The generator can support different project styles instead of forcing every solution into one shape.
✅ Benefit: Developers can match generated output to the architecture their team already uses, which makes adoption easier and keeps generated code aligned with existing engineering standards.
🧱 Include Or Exclude .NET Solution Project Layers
Decide which .NET project layers should be included in the generated solution. Teams can create leaner projects for simple tools or fuller layered solutions for production systems with API, application, domain, infrastructure, tests, and client needs.
✅ Benefit: The generated solution stays proportional to the project instead of adding unnecessary layers or leaving out structure the team needs later.
⚙️ API And DTO Styles: CQRS, MediatR, Controllers, Minimal APIs
Configure API style and DTO generation choices, including CQRS, MediatR, controllers, and minimal API patterns. This lets developers generate code that fits their preferred ASP.NET Core conventions and application complexity.
✅ Benefit: Teams can avoid hand-converting generated output to match their stack because the generator starts closer to the desired architecture.
📦 DTO Policy: Request, Response, Entity, Command, And Query DTOs
Define how sql2solution creates DTOs for API requests, responses, entities, commands, and queries. Clear DTO policy helps separate external API contracts from internal persistence and domain behavior.
✅ Benefit: Better DTO control improves maintainability, reduces accidental data exposure, and gives client applications cleaner contracts to consume.
🗄️ Entity Framework Core Configuration
Configure Entity Framework Core generation behavior for SQL-backed .NET projects. This helps shape how database metadata becomes C# persistence configuration, entity mapping, and data access conventions.
✅ Benefit: Consistent EF Core configuration reduces repetitive mapping work and makes generated infrastructure easier to review, test, and extend.
🌐 Global Solution Endpoint Defaults
Set solution-wide endpoint defaults once and apply them consistently across generated APIs. Global defaults can cover repeated API behavior that should remain predictable across tables and entities.
✅ Benefit: Teams get consistent generated endpoints, fewer manual edits, and less risk that each entity behaves like a separate one-off implementation.
🎛️ Advanced Endpoint Defaults
Fine-tune advanced endpoint behavior for generated ASP.NET Core APIs. These settings help teams control API behavior beyond the basic CRUD path, especially when projects need stronger conventions around generated operations.
✅ Benefit: Advanced defaults let developers make deeper API decisions before generation, saving manual endpoint cleanup after the solution is created.
🎯 Entity-Specific Endpoint Defaults
Override global endpoint defaults for a specific entity when one table needs different API behavior. This is useful when most endpoints should follow the same convention, but important entities need special handling.
✅ Benefit: Developers get the speed of global conventions while keeping the flexibility to model exceptions without hand-editing generated code later.
🧩 Endpoint Field Configuration Per Entity
Configure fields for each generated entity endpoint, including whether a field should be searchable, filterable, editable, visible, or assigned a default value. This lets sql2solution generate APIs and client behavior that better match the real purpose of each SQL table.
✅ Benefit: Developers can prevent accidental field exposure, reduce repetitive manual DTO edits, and produce cleaner entity-specific APIs from the start.
🕵️ Audit Fields With Defaults And Validation
Seed standard audit fields or create and modify custom audit fields with validation rules. Teams can define lifecycle fields, soft-delete fields, required values, read-only behavior, and defaults before generating the solution.
✅ Benefit: Consistent audit fields make generated .NET APIs easier to govern, easier to debug, and safer for business workflows that need traceability.
🏢 Per-Entity Multi-Tenant, Cache, Claim, Delete, And Pagination Controls
Control entity-specific behavior for multi-tenant solutions, including caching, query variation, validate-on-write behavior, claims, soft delete or hard delete, and pagination. This gives each generated entity the right runtime behavior instead of forcing one global pattern everywhere.
✅ Benefit: Teams can generate safer tenant-aware APIs, tune performance-sensitive entities, and keep delete and pagination behavior aligned with real business rules.
🕒 Entity Configuration Version History And Revert
Keep versions of each entity configuration so developers can compare changes and revert to an earlier setup when needed. This is useful when testing generation options, changing endpoint behavior, or recovering a known-good configuration after experimentation.
✅ Benefit: Version history reduces risk while tuning generated APIs, because teams can iterate on configuration without losing a working baseline.
🔁 Generate Different API Versions
Configure API versioning so generated ASP.NET Core endpoints can support versioned contracts. Versioning is important when clients depend on stable APIs while the database and product continue to evolve.
✅ Benefit: API version generation helps teams plan for backward compatibility, client migrations, and cleaner long-term API lifecycle management.
These walkthroughs show the parts of sql2solution that help teams move beyond basic CRUD generation: client apps, security, runtime operations, realtime integrations, workflow automation, test generation, output management, and production-readiness checks.
🎨 Optional Client Generation: Razor Pages And Blazor Web App
Generate an optional client project alongside the backend API. sql2solution can create client-facing project structure for Razor Pages or Blazor-style web app workflows so the generated backend has a practical UI path from the beginning.
✅ Benefit: Teams can validate generated APIs faster with real screens, reduce frontend setup time, and give stakeholders something useful to review earlier in the project.
🧬 Default Audit, Multi-Tenant, Pagination, Caching, And Query Behaviors
Configure default generation behavior for audit fields, tenant-aware data access, pagination, caching, and query rules. These defaults help shape how generated APIs behave across the solution before individual entities are customized.
✅ Benefit: Teams can define consistent data access and API behavior once, then generate cleaner endpoints with fewer manual corrections after code creation.
🔐 Security: Authentication, Authorization, Roles, Policies, And RBAC
Enable authentication, choose providers, configure authorization modes, define roles and policies, and prepare enterprise-style access controls with RBAC bootstrap options for generated ASP.NET Core APIs.
✅ Benefit: Security becomes part of the generated foundation instead of a late project add-on, helping teams build safer APIs with clearer access rules from the start.
🛡️ Operations: Runtime Resilience, Observability, And Rate Limiting
Configure runtime operation features such as resilience patterns, observability, structured runtime readiness, and rate limiting. These settings help generated APIs behave more like production services instead of simple demo endpoints.
✅ Benefit: Teams can prepare generated APIs for monitoring, reliability, and controlled traffic earlier in the development lifecycle.
⚡ SignalR Realtime Integration For Client UI Refresh
Enable SignalR integration so generated client screens can respond to backend data changes without requiring users to refresh the page. This creates a stronger foundation for realtime dashboards, admin tools, and collaborative business workflows.
✅ Benefit: Generated apps can feel more responsive and modern, while developers get a starting point for richer realtime features.
🔄 Workflow And State Machine Generation
Configure workflow and state machine behavior for generated entities. This helps teams model lifecycle transitions, status-driven actions, and structured business processes directly in the generated solution plan.
✅ Benefit: Developers can generate more than simple CRUD endpoints by adding business-state behavior that mirrors real operational workflows.
🧪 Test Section And Smoke Tests
Include tests in the generated solution and let sql2solution prepare smoke-test workflows after the solution is created. This helps verify that generated APIs, configuration, and expected runtime behavior are still aligned.
✅ Benefit: Teams can catch broken generation assumptions earlier and ship with more confidence because validation is part of the generated project workflow.
📤 Output Management: CI Pipeline, Postman, EF Core Migrations, API Validation, And Smoke Tests
Manage generated solution outputs before or after creation, including CI pipeline assets, Postman collections, EF Core migration management, API validation, and smoke-test execution.
✅ Benefit: sql2solution helps teams move from code generation to project delivery by preparing the supporting artifacts needed for testing, integration, automation, and handoff.
Building SQL-backed .NET applications often means repeating the same work:
- Create controllers and endpoints
- Map entities, DTOs, and request models
- Configure Swagger and OpenAPI
- Build Razor or Blazor client screens
