The official Entity Framework Core integration for ParadeDB, including first-class support for managing BM25 indexes and running queries using the full ParadeDB API. The integration covers both full-text and vector search — vector search indexes pgvector vector columns directly, with no separate pgvector ORM plugin required. Follow the getting started guide to begin.
