# Scaffolding
Generates C# code from database schemas (reverse engineering).
## When Not to Use
- Working on compiled model generation (`dotnet ef dbcontext optimize`)
## Reverse Engineering
Pipeline: `IDatabaseModelFactory` (reads schema) → `IScaffoldingModelFactory` (builds EF model) → `IModelCodeGenerator` (generates C#)
- `IReverseEngineerScaffolder` — orchestrates full pipeline
