Hello,
I am trying to develop an app utilizing WPF, MVVM, Prism, EF, SQL Server, and possibly WCF to perform database operations. This is a project to learn how to implement Prism and is an app I am going to use to keep track of my movie collection. Which approach would be the better choice, code first or database first? Also could you please provide a path to an example so I can see how it would be implemented?

Thank you,
Rob
