SQL Server Tutorial
Interactive demo ⇒ 
ELINQ allows you to use C# (or your .NET language of choice) to write strongly typed queries. It is capable to represent any practical SQL DML.
To demonstrate ELINQ capabilities we took examples from a popular SQL Server Tutorial and implemented all of them in C# and ELINQ in a strongly typed way. Our goal is to show "pixel-perfect" SQL translation, EF integration, type safety and ease of use (we take the example as is, without trying to improve SQL).
This site is built with a wonderful Try .NET technology. All the examples are interactive, intellisense enabled and runnable with changes you may make. Enjoy!
- Standard (actually most of SQL is here, including many advanced concepts 😉)
- Advanced (User-defined Functions)
- Functions (Builtin Functions)
All the examples are executed against a real database, created according to provided instructions. The DbContext is scaffolded with EF tooling in a separate project hosted on GitHub.
All queries are executed in a transaction, which is rolled back at the end. Therefore no changes are persisted and each query can be executed multiple times producing same results. In addition we installed a console logger to inspect the executed SQL.
