# DevExpress XPO ORM for .NET Framework / .NET Core / .NET Standard 2.0

[eXpressPersistent Objects™ (XPO)](https://www.devexpress.com/Products/NET/ORM/?utm_source=GitHub&utm_medium=ReadMe&utm_campaign=XPO&utm_content=Root) is an Object-Relational Mapping (ORM) tool that handles all aspects of database creation and object persistence, allowing you to concentrate on your application's business logic rather than database complexities. It offers Code First, Model First and Database First development workflows.

## Getting Started with This Repository
The [Tutorials](Tutorials) subfolder contains CRUD samples and tutorials demonstrating how to use XPO in Console, WinForms, WPF, ASP.NET Core/MVC5/WebForms/Blazor or Xamarin apps. 

The [Benchmarks](Benchmarks) subfolder contains performance benchmarks that you can use to test XPO against Entity Framework Core and Entity Framework 6. All required DevExpress references are included.
