You have to install appropriate EF - for Core. For further details, please see: Installing Entity Framework Core - EF Core | Microsoft Docs[^]

Here is a list of possible EF Core database providers: Installing Entity Framework Core - EF Core | Microsoft Docs[^]

You can also use EF Core from NuGet:
- PostgreSql EF Core[^]
- MySql EF Core[^]
- etc.

[EDIT]
You can create database first within EF. Follow the steps from:
Entity Framework Core with Existing Database[^]
