@ploeh EF Core doesn't have the limitation you mentioned. You can nest objects and serialize them to a column using JSON serialization.

@khalidabuhakmeh I'm trying to read from the database into my Domain Model. How do I do that?

Feel free to add an answer to https://stackoverflow.com/q/77039584/126014 if this is actually possible.

@ploeh I'm on vacation right now but I'll give it a shot when I get back.

EF Core 8 is adding mapping to untracked entities.

Update: here's the confirmation. https://github.com/dotnet/efcore/issues/10753

@khalidabuhakmeh @ploeh Just for your information: You can nest objects into Entity-types, they are called "Owned Entity Types" [1]. But that has nothing to do with your mapping to your domain model. I haven't tried it with your code.
And yes, scaffolding is not perfect, I use the "EF Core Power Tools" [2] by Erik EJ for such things.
