## Summary

A comprehensive step-by-step guide to building a CRUD Web API with .NET 10, EF Core 10, and PostgreSQL. Covers project setup with Minimal APIs, Domain-Driven Design patterns using EntityBase and factory methods, IEntityTypeConfiguration for clean Fluent API mappings, Docker Compose for PostgreSQL 17, code-first migrations, data seeding, DTOs, and a service layer. Includes benchmarks showing AsNoTracking() is 2.9x–5.2x faster on read queries, a decision matrix for choosing between EF Core stacks, and a comparison of Minimal APIs vs Controllers. Also highlights EF Core 10's new named query filters feature.
