Usage

ts
// Entity Framework is consumed by the Pams.API .NET project.
// JavaScript clients call API endpoints that use Entity Framework internally.

const response = await fetch("/api/patients/42");

if (!response.ok) {
  throw new Error("Unable to load patient data");
}

const patient = await response.json();
console.log(patient);

AI Coding Instructions

• Keep EntityFramework package references in Pams.API.csproj aligned with the API's existing .NET target and dependency format.
• Use the existing Entity Framework data context and entity mappings rather than creating parallel database access code.
• Treat Entity Framework as a server-side dependency; browser TypeScript and JavaScript should access data through API endpoints.
• Check query behavior, entity tracking, and database migrations before changing persistence-related code.
