Hey Product Hunt — I built the .NET data layer I wish had existed 20 years ago.

pengdows.crud 2.0

I've been writing production .NET since beta 2 -- that is November 2001 for those that don't remember. I've used everything. I've been burned by everything.

EF Core hides what it's doing until it doesn't and then you're reading query plans at 2am wondering why a simple update is taking 400ms. Dapper is honest, but it's also essentially abandoned infrastructure at this point zero database-free test coverage until a PR I submitted last month raised it from 0.61% to 86%.

So I built the thing I actually wanted. pengdows.crud started internally in 2006, ran in production for a decade, and got a full .NET Core 8 rewrite as v1.0. 2.0 just dropped.
