With Autofac we are able to manage the dependencies and the lifecycle of the repositories in our application. So let's starting with the implementation of a basic respository example, then we proceed with the Autofac configurations and with the test... Continue Reading →

Autofac is a popular and very useful IoC container, a tool that help us to manage the dependency injection in our application.
