Migrating from Dapper to RepoDB

20 minute read

Published:

None of that changes the migration path below — the CRUD layer this post covers is still the part that talks to IDbConnection the same way Dapper does — but it’s worth knowing upfront that migrating gets you a foundation to grow into, not just a like-for-like swap.
