title: unit of work design pattern - example without entity framework?
body: <p>I'm trying to learn the Unit of Work and Repository patterns and wanted to do some samples at the same time.  However, whatever I'm finding online always uses Entity Framework.  </p>
  
  <p>What would the Unit of Work and Repository patterns look like if not specific to Entity Framework?  It is a little difficult to discern what aspects are part of the pattern and what are a side affect of integrating with EF.</p>
