title: How to integrate MySQL with .NET Core 3 and Entity Framework 6
body: <p>I have a database project on full <code>.NET Framework</code> with <code>Entity framework 6.3</code> and <code>MySql.Data.MySqlClient</code> as provider (package <code>MySql.Data</code> and <code>MySql.Data.EntityFramework bot 8.0.18</code>). This all works as expected.</p>
  
  <p>Now I would like to port this to <code>.NET Core 3.0</code>.I still need to stay on <code>Entity framework 6.3</code> and use old <code>EDMX model</code>.I've created new Core project and linked database entities and <code>edmx</code> (<a href="https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/ef/ef6/what-is-new/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">port existing EF 6.3 to core</a>). The problem I  encounter is that the provider <code>MySql.Data.MySqlClient</code> (<code>MySql.Data.EntityFramework</code> NuGet package) doesn't seem to include a <code>.NET Core</code> version.</p>
  
  <p>Am I missing a NuGet package? Do I need another MySql provider, that will work on <code>.NET Core 3.0</code> and <code>Entity Framework 6.3</code>?</p>
